Antaeotricha spermolitha is a moth of the family Depressariidae. It is found in Guyana.[1]

The wingspan is about 23 mm. The forewings are pale fuscous, irrorated with dark fuscous and with the extreme costal edge whitish-ochreous from one-fourth onwards. The dorsal scale-projection towards the base is rather conspicuous, whitish-ochreous, irrorated with dark grey and there is a small blackish dot on the costal edge at two-fifths and a marginal series of small blackish marks placed in a whitish-ochreous line along the posterior half of the costa and termen. The hindwings are grey.[2]
