Doina eremnogramma is a moth in the family Depressariidae. It was described by John Frederick Gates Clarke in 1978. It is found in Chile.[1]

The wingspan is 28–31 mm. The forewings are cinereous. From the base of the wing, between veins 11 and 12, a fuscous line extends to almost the middle of the costa and between veins 9 and 10 and 10 and 11, short fuscous streaks are found. Similar but ill-defined lines are found between other veins and from the apical third of the costa, around the apex and along the termen to the tornus, is a series of 11 fuscous streaks. In the cell, a fuscous longitudinal streak and a greyish-fuscous shade are found and there is a short fuscous streak on the fold at about two-fifths. The apical two-fifths of the wing are lightly infuscated. The hindwings are sordid white, lightly infuscated and sparsely irrorated with small greyish-fuscous scales.[2]
