Hypercallia cnephaea is a moth in the Depressariidae family. It was described by Walsingham in 1912. It is found in Panama.[1]
The wingspan is about 19 mm. The forewings are dark tawny, with a yellowish white streak along the outer half of the costa, blending to yellowish ochreous at its lower edge, this colour gradually losing itself in the tawny wing-surface toward the end of the cell. On the lower two-thirds of the termen some fawn-grey occurs between the tawny lines which mark the veins, extending inward nearly as far as the cell. The hindwings are dark fawn-grey.[2]
