Syncopacma zonariella is a moth of the family Gelechiidae. It was described by Thomas de Grey, 6th Baron Walsingham, in 1905. It is found in Algeria. [1]

The wingspan is about 16 mm. The forewings are black, sparsely sprinkled with pale ochreous scales, which are slightly grouped in the fold a little beyond its middle and on the disc above and beyond. At the outer third of the wing-length is a straight, clearly defined, pale ochreous fascia, its outer edge somewhat jagged. The hindwings are grey, with a brownish tinge. [2]
