Dichomeris cyclospila is a moth in the family Gelechiidae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1918.[1] It is found in French Guiana.[2]
The wingspan is about 16 mm (0.63 in). The forewings are pale ochreous, the costal edge pinkish tinged and with dark reddish-fuscous dots above and below the fold at one-fifth. The stigmata are represented by small round dark reddish-fuscous spots obscurely edged with whitish, the first discal largest, the plical beneath the first discal. There is an irregular curved and sinuate indistinct pale line from three-fourths of the costa to the dorsum before the tornus and there are marginal blackish dots around the posterior part of the costa and termen. The hindwings are dark grey.[3]
