Stenoma fenestra is a moth in the Depressariidae family. It was described by Busck in 1914. It is found in Panama.[1]

The wingspan is about 22 mm. The forewings are dark violaceous brown with a round lemon yellow spot on the costal edge near the base, followed by a large reddish-yellow spot, edged by dark velvety brown scales. There is a small yellow dot within the middle of the dorsal edge, and some diffused reddish and dark-brown streaks on the cell. Two indistinct and suffused, whitish, zigzag lines are found across the wing at the apical third and the extreme costal edge, a small spot at the apical third of the costa and the extreme apex are all light yellow. The hindwings are dark fuscous.[2]
