Pedois rhaphidias is a moth in the Depressariidae family. It was described by Turner in 1917. It is found in Australia, where it has been recorded from Queensland.[1]

The forewings are grey-whitish, with numerous streaks parallel to the veins, brown mixed with dark-fuscous. There is a longitudinal streak in the posterior and lower part of the cell, as well as a darker streak along the fold. On the termen, the ends of the streaks are dilated and nearly confluent. The hindwings are very pale-grey.[2]
