Coproptilia glebicolorella is a moth in the family Lecithoceridae. It was described by Pieter Cornelius Tobias Snellen in 1903.[2][3] It is found on Sumatra and western Java.[3]

The wingspan is 16–25 mm. The forewings are clay brown, with slightly lighter veins and ill-defined blackish-brown streaks in the cells at the base. The hindwings are greyer than the forewings up to half, then become the same colour as the forewings.[1]
