Pexicopia nephelombra is a moth of the Gelechiidae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1904. It is found in Australia, where it has been recorded from Queensland.[1]
The wingspan is 12-14 mm. The forewings are light bronzy-ochreous sprinkled with fuscous. The markings are cloudy, deep fuscous-bronze. There is a basal fascia, and a broader fascia at one-third, connected by a dorsal suffusion. There is also an apical patch covering one-third of the wing. The hindwings are rather dark fuscous.[2]
