Gemorodes diclera is a moth in the Xyloryctidae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1925. It is found in South Africa (Western Cape).[1][2]

The wingspan is about 26 mm. The forewings are grey, irregularly irrorated with whitish scales tipped dark fuscous. There is an obscure undefined subbasal fascia of darker irroration. The discal stigmata form spots of dark fuscous irroration, the space between them more whitish-suffused. The hindwings are grey.[3]
