Neopotamia atrigrapta is a moth of the Tortricidae family. It is found in Vietnam.[1]

The wingspan is about 21 mm. The ground colour of the forewings is cream sprinkled with pale brownish grey and suffused with pale ferruginous in the costal and terminal areas. The hindwings are pale brownish.

Etymology

The name refers to the black colour of the costal marking and cilia and is derived from Latin ater (meaning black) and Greek grapta (meaning painted).
