Stenoma adytodes is a moth of the family Depressariidae. It is found in Peru.[1]

The wingspan is 26–28 mm. The forewings are dark fuscous with a broad white costal streak from near the base to beyond the middle, the ends pointed, the costal edge pale ochreous. There is an irregular-edged rounded white apical blotch extending on the costa to two-thirds and a slender pale brownish-ochreous dorsal streak throughout, expanded into a triangular postmedian blotch tipped white, the tornal extremity also white. The hindwings are whitish ochreous suffused light grey, with the apex whitish.[2]
