Chionodes paralogella is a moth in the Gelechiidae family.[1] It is found in North America, where it has been recorded from California.[2][3]
The wingspan is about 17 mm. The forewings are blackish brown, nearly black. A short deep black line runs from the base below the costa, dotted with a single bright ochreous scales. There is an indistinct longitudinal row of black dots from the middle to beyond the end of the cell, each black dot edged exteriorly with a few light ochreous scales. There is a few similarly edged black dots on the fold. The hindwings are light fuscous.[4]
