Timyra parochra is a moth in the Lecithoceridae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1906. It is found in Sri Lanka.[1]

The wingspan is 23-27 mm. The forewings are deep yellow-ochreous or brownish-ochreous, irrorated with purplish fuscous and dark fuscous. There is a curved postmedian fascia more or less obscurely indicated by margins of purplish-fuscous and dark fuscous suffusion, narrowed dorsally, enclosed portion sometimes ferruginous-tinged. The hindwings are pale whitish-ochreous, towards the termen slightly infuscated. There is a slight groove on the lower margin of the cell.[2]
