Gonionota anelicta is a moth in the family Depressariidae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1926. It is found in Bolivia.[1]

The wingspan is about 16 mm. The forewings are brown, with a slight rosy tinge and a white dot on the costa at two-fifths, edged anteriorly by dark grey suffusion and followed by a short indistinct somewhat oblique streak of grey suffusion, the recurved portion of the costa also dark grey. There is a small white spot on the costa at two-thirds, the costal edge preceding this shortly white to meet the recurved portion. The first discal stigma is indistinctly grey, the second white. The hindwings are dark grey.[2]
