Lecithocera sophronopa is a moth in the family Lecithoceridae. It was described by Alexey Diakonoff in 1968. It is found on Luzon in the Philippines. [1]
The wingspan is about 15 mm. The forewings are pale fuscous touched with creamy, strewn throughout with rather dense fuscous scales. The markings are dark fuscous. There is an ill-defined triangular small basal patch with a very inwards-oblique edge and obliterate lower third. A well-defined, somewhat irregular interrupted marginal narrow streak is found around more than the posterior fourth of the wing. The stigmata are irregular, about equal, the first discal beyond one-third of the wing, the plical below and somewhat before it, the second discal before two-thirds. The hindwings are fuscous, rather thinly scaled. [2]
