Epiphthora leucomichla is a moth of the Gelechiidae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1904. It is found in Australia, where it has been recorded from Tasmania and New South Wales.[1]

The wingspan is 14-15 mm. The forewings are shining white, with some scattered fuscous or dark fuscous scales and an outwardly oblique bar from the middle of the dorsum reaching half across the wing, a spot on the tornus, a spot on the costa at three-fourths, and an ochreous-fuscous terminal suffusion towards the apex, or indicated by dark fuscous irroration only. The hindwings are grey.[2]
