Sarotorna stenodes is a moth of the Gelechiidae family. It was described by Turner in 1936. It is found in Australia, where it has been recorded from Western Australia.[1]

The wingspan is about 12 mm. The forewings are white with dark fuscous markings. There is an oblique fascia from beneath one-third of the costa to above the base of the dorsum and another from two-thirds of the costa to the mid-dorsum. A third is found from two-thirds of the costa to the tornus. There is also an apical blotch. The hindwings are pale grey.[2]
