Antiochtha stellulata is a moth in the family Lecithoceridae. It was described by Meyrick in 1906. It is found in Sri Lanka.[1]
The wingspan is about 22 mm. The forewings are pale fuscous irrorated with dark fuscous, with strong purplish reflections. The markings are pale whitish-ochreous, yellower on the costal edge. There are transverse marks from the costa beyond one-third and two-thirds, the first narrow and irregular, the second rather broader. There is a dot on the fold before the middle and two minute dots transversely placed in the disc beyond the middle. Four dots form a curved transverse subterminal series on the dorsal half. The hindwings are fuscous.[2]
