Lecithocera amphigrapta is a moth in the Lecithoceridae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1926. It is found on Borneo.[1]
The wingspan is about 14 mm. The forewings are light ashy-fuscous. The markings are blackish, edged with ochreous-yellow. There is a short longitudinal mark towards the costa near the base and an oblong spot on the costa before the middle. A large irregular-trapezoidal blotch is found in the disc before the middle, its base resting on the fold and there is a transverse-oval blotch in the disc beyond the middle, as well as a blackish fascia near and parallel to the termen, margined only by two yellowish dots on the lower half of the posterior edge and a mark on the dorsal edge. The costal edge is ochreous-yellow from the antemedian spot to the fascia and the apical edge is blackish. The hindwings are grey.[2]
