Anadasmus pelodes is a moth of the Depressariidae family. It is found in Mexico, Panama, Guyana and Brazil (Amazonas).[1]

The wingspan is 25-26 mm. The forewings are light brownish, faintly purplish-tinged and with the extreme costal edge ochreous-whitish. The plical and second discal stigmata are small and dark fuscous and there is a series of faint cloudy fuscous dots from four-fifths of the costa to the dorsum before the tornus, rather curved outwards in the disc. A marginal series of cloudy dark fuscous dots is found around the apex and termen. The hindwings are rather dark grey.[2]
