Schizovalva exsulata is a moth of the Gelechiidae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1918. It is found in South Africa.[1][2]

The wingspan is about 12 mm. The forewings are blackish with a moderately broad irregular-edged ochreous-whitish dorsal streak from the base to the tornus, its upper edge rather triangular-prominent at the middle and three-fourth of the length. There is a short oblique ochreous-white streak from the costa at four-fifths and a triangular clear white spot occupying the lower two-thirds of the termen. The hindwings are grey.[3]
