Stenoma subita is a moth of the family Depressariidae. It is found in Bolivia.[1]

The wingspan is about 26 mm. The forewings are dark fuscous, darkest towards the dorsum, with some ochreous-brownish suffusion in the middle of the disc and before the termen. The hindwings are white with a very broad dark fuscous terminal band occupying the posterior half of the wing throughout, the dorsum and subdorsal hairs suffused grey.[2]
