Stenoma dilinopa is a moth of the family Depressariidae. It is found in Brazil (Amazonas) and Peru.[1]

The wingspan is 20–24 mm. The forewings are pale ochreous, the markings formed of suffused brown or ferruginous-brown irroration. There is a basal patch of which edge runs from one-fourth of the costa to the middle of the dorsum, separated by a pale streak from a moderate parallel fascia, this nearly followed by an irregular parallel line traversing a linear transverse dark fuscous mark on the end of the cell, and a pre-marginal fascia covering more than one-third of the costa and narrowed to the tornus, its anterior edge curved. There is a terminal series of small black dots. The hindwings are light ochreous yellow, the dorsal third more or less tinged grey.[2]
