Sattleria styriaca is a moth in the Gelechiidae family. It was described by Pitkin and Sattler in 1991. It is found in the Alps of Austria.[1][2]

The length of the forewings is 10-10.8 mm for males and about 7.6 mm for females. The forewings have a dark stripe from the base to one-third or two-fifths along the fold. There is usually a diffuse irregular dark transverse band, at two thirds in males and near the apex in females. Adults are on wing from late July to the beginning of August.[3]
