Aristotelia centrosema is a moth of the Gelechiidae family. It was described by Lower in 1893. It is found in Australia, where it has been recorded from Tasmania, New South Wales and Victoria.[1]
The wingspan is 10-14 mm. The forewings are ochreous-bronzy, sometimes golden-tinged, the costal half usually more or less pale, the dorsal half more or less suffused with fuscous. The costal edge is ochreous-whitish from about one-fourth to three-fourths and there is a rather narrow ochreous-white median longitudinal streak from the base to the apex. The hindwings are grey.[2]
