Dichomeris plexigramma is a moth in the family Gelechiidae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1922.[1] It is found in the Guianas, Peru and Amazonas, Brazil.[2]
The wingspan is 18–20 mm (0.71–0.79 in). The forewings are pale ochreous, variably streaked with dark brown suffusion between the veins, more strongly in the disc and forming oblique wedge-shaped streaks in the cell. There is sometimes a pale shade near and parallel to the termen. The hindwings are dark grey.[3]
