Stenoma compsocharis is a moth of the family Depressariidae. It is found in Bolivia.[1] The wingspan is about 23 mm. The forewings are white, somewhat sprinkled fuscous in the disc and with the extreme edge of the costa towards the base and a basal dot dark fuscous. There is a small cloudy fuscous spot on the costa at one-fifth, a larger one at two-fifths, and a still larger triangular spot at two-thirds including a whitish costal dot. The stigmata are small, indistinct and dark fuscous, the plical obliquely beyond the first discal. There is a large fuscous dot on the costa at four-fifths, beneath this an angulated transverse series of minute dots. A fuscous dot is found on the costa near the apex, and there is a terminal series of minute indistinct dots. The hindwings are white, with the apical and terminal edge interruptedly grey.[2]
