Stenoma ochropa is a moth in the family Depressariidae. It was described by Lord Walsingham in 1913. It is found in Panama.[1]

The wingspan is about 18 mm. The forewings are brownish grey, the costa narrowly tinged, especially beyond the middle, with coppery brown extending a little below the rounded apex. A slight stain of the same colour is visible toward the outer end of the cell, and around it are scattered a few whitish scales. The hindwings are dark brown.[2]
