Palinorsa acritomorpha is a moth in the family Depressariidae. It was described by Clarke in 1964. It is found in Peru.[1]

The wingspan is 33–36 mm. The forewings are cinnamon with the extreme costa, before the apex, whitish. There is a small fuscous spot in the cell at one-third and an ill-defined transverse fuscous bar at the end of the cell. On each side of vein Ic, opposite the base of vein 2, there is a buff spot narrowly edged with fuscous and the dorsum and termen are narrowly fuscous. The hindwings are semi-hyaline whitish.[2]
