Hellinsia discors is a moth of the Pterophoridae family that is endemic to Guyana.[1]

The wingspan is 12‑13 mm. The forewings are ochreous‑whitish, with a few scattered fuscous and black specks. A slender suffused dark fuscous streak runs along the costa from the base to the cleft. The hindwings are rather dark grey. Adults are on wing from January to March.[2]
