Apotoforma negans is a species of moth of the family Tortricidae. It is found in Haiti.
The wingspan is about 16 mm. The forewings are olive-grey with a greenish tinge. The costa and termen are shining pale bronzy-brown and there is an oblique series of raised fuscous scales extending from the costa before the middle in a slightly outwardly bowed line towards the middle of the dorsum. This is followed beyond the middle by an ill-defined, scarcely visible, parallel hue of pale brown. The hindwings are umber-brown.[2]
