Stomopteryx praecipitata is a moth of the Gelechiidae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1918. It is found in southern India and Bengal.[1]
The wingspan is 7–8 mm. The forewings are dark fuscous, with the plical stigma obscurely blackish. There is a straight direct rather irregular-edged narrow white fascia at two-thirds, in one specimen reduced and almost obsolete dorsally. The hindwings are rather dark grey.[2]
