Filatima tephrinopa is a moth of the family Gelechiidae. It is found in North America, where it has been recorded from Texas.[1][2]
The wingspan is 15–17 mm. The forewings are rather dark grey, more or less irrorated black, sometimes some slight scattered black marks, in one example a short line black longitudinal streak from just beneath the apex. The discal stigmata form small indistinct blackish-grey spots obscurely ringed or partly edged whitish-grey, the first roundish or somewhat elongate, the second smaller, some dark suffusion or marking between and before them, the plical forming an elongate mark. The hindwings are grey.[3]
