Autosticha phaulodes is a moth in the family Autostichidae. It was described by Meyrick in 1908. It is found in Sri Lanka.[1]

The wingspan is 12-15 mm. The forewings are brownish-ochreous, irrorated with fuscous and dark fuscous. The stigmata are moderate or large and dark fuscous, the plical somewhat before the first discal. There is a small pre-tornal spot of dark fuscous suffusion and an almost marginal series of dark fuscous dots along the posterior portion of the costa and termen. The hindwings are grey.[2]
