Torodora bracculata is a moth in the family Lecithoceridae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1911. It is found in Assam, India.[1]

The wingspan is 15–17 mm. The forewings are rather dark purplish fuscous. The second discal stigma is obscurely darker and there are ochreous-white wedge-shaped strigulae on the costa at three-fourths and the dorsum before the tornus, connected by a faint sinuate whitish line. The hindwings are rather dark grey.[2]
