Stenoma anetodes is a moth of the family Depressariidae. It is found in Guyana.[1]
The wingspan is 20–21 mm. The forewings are pale greyish ochreous, slightly sprinkled with fuscous, the veins posteriorly marked with indistinct fuscous lines and with a streak of dark fuscous suffusion from the base of the costa to one-fourth of the dorsum. The stigmata are blackish, the plical and first discal very small, the plical obliquely posterior, the second discal transverse-linear. There is a small cloudy dark fuscous transverse spot on the costa at two-fifths, and three cloudy dark fuscous marks between this and the second discal stigma. A cloudy dentate dark fuscous line is found from a spot on the costa beyond the middle very obliquely outwards to beyond the cell, then abruptly angulated and continued less marked, irregularly dentate, to the dorsum about two-thirds. There is an interrupted waved dark fuscous line or series of marks from the costa at three-fourths sinuate-oblique to the opposite apex, then angulated and continued parallel to the termen to the dorsum before the tornus, followed on the costa by a patch of dark fuscous suffusion. There is a series of dark fuscous marginal dots around the costa posteriorly and the termen. The hindwings are pale grey.[2]
