Ardozyga subnexella is a species of moth in the family Gelechiidae. It was described by Walker in 1864. It is found in Australia, where it has been recorded from Queensland and New South Wales.[1]

The wingspan is 16-17 mm. The forewings are purplish-fuscous irregularly irrorated with dark fuscous or blackish and with a streak of blackish suffusion along the fold. There is a suffused black streak in the disc from before the middle to near the termen, interrupted by a rather large white second discal stigma. The hindwings are fuscous, darker posteriorly, thinly scaled towards the base.[2]
