Stenoma strigivenata is a moth of the Depressariidae family. It is found in the Amazon region, Guyana and Peru.[1]

The wingspan is 21-27 mm for males and about 24 mm for females.[2] The forewings are ashy-grey or whitish-grey with the extreme costal edge whitish. The plical and second discal stigmata are darker and obscure and there is a cloudy darker grey curved line from three-fourths of the costa to the tornus, indented above the middle. A series of minute dark grey marginal dots is found around the apex and termen. The hindwings are grey or light grey, somewhat darker posteriorly.[3]
