Ardozyga aspetodes is a species of moth in the family Gelechiidae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1904. It is found in Australia where it has been recorded from Victoria.[1]

The wingspan is about 21 mm. The forewings are dark brown-grey with the stigmata dark fuscous, each followed by a minute pale dot, the plical obliquely beyond the first discal, the second discal transverse. There is a series of pale dots along the posterior part of the costa and termen. The hindwings are fuscous with a terminal series of pale dots.[2]
