Stenoma scitiorella is a moth in the family Depressariidae. It was described by Francis Walker in 1864. It is found in Panama, Brazil (Amazonas) and Guyana. [1]

The wingspan is 12–13 mm. The forewings are glossy violet grey with the costa more or less broadly suffused with white from the base to the middle and with a rather oblique hardly curved somewhat irregular white line from the middle of the costa to two-thirds of the dorsum, rather suffused anteriorly, edged with dark fuscous posteriorly. The wing beyond this is glossy dark slaty grey, with the costal edge and a streak around the termen white. There are some marginal dark fuscous dots around the apex and termen. The hindwings are grey. [2]
