Nealyda panchromatica is a moth of the family Gelechiidae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1926. It is found in Assam, India.[1]

The wingspan is about 10 mm. The forewings are iridescent dark golden bronzy fuscous with shining violet-leaden-metallic markings. There is a basal fascia, a rather curved narrow fascia at one-fourth, transverse spots on the costa at the middle and three-fourths, and one on the dorsum before the first of these. There is also an inwards-oblique streak from the tornus, nearly reaching the median costal spot, as well as a slender streak along the lower part of the termen. The hindwings are dark bronzy-fuscous.[2]
