Aristotelia hemisarca is a moth of the Gelechiidae family. It was described by Lower in 1916. It is found in Australia, where it has been recorded from New South Wales.[1]
The wingspan is about 16 mm. The forewings are dull fuscous and obscure markings. There is a moderately broad outwardly oblique transverse whitish-ochreous fascia, from the costa at one-sixth to the dorsum at one-fifth, where it becomes confluent with a moderate ochreous-whitish dorsal streak, somewhat suffused, from near the base to the tornus. There is an obscurely-edged ochreous-whitish transverse fascia, from the costa at five-sixths to the tornus, separated from the dorsal streak by a patch of ground-colour. There is a four or five quadrate spots of ochreous-white on the costa, between the posterior edge of the previous fascia and the apex, separated by similar-sized spots of ground-colour. The hindwings are pale greyish.[2]
