Stenoma strigivenata is a moth of the family Depressariidae. It is found in the Amazon region, Guyana and Peru.[1]
The wingspan is 21–27 mm for males and about 24 mm for females.[2] The forewings are ashy grey or whitish grey with the extreme coastal edge whitish. The plical and second discal stigmata are darker and obscure and there is a cloudy darker grey curved line from three-fourths of the costa to the tornus, indented above the middle. A series of minute dark grey marginal dots is found around the apex and termen. The hindwings are grey or light grey, somewhat darker posteriorly.[3]
