Stenoma camptospila is a moth of the family Depressariidae. It is found in Amazonas, Brazil .[1]

The wingspan is 21–22 mm. The forewings are pale greyish ochreous with about five small blackish dots in the disc in two transverse series at about one-third and before the middle. There is a transverse dark fuscous spot filled with ochreous in the disc beyond the middle, its lower end produced obliquely towards the tornus as a dark fuscous lobe with the apex expanded. There is an undefined cloud of light fuscous suffusion on the costa towards the apex, where a hardly traceable faint pale fuscous rather curved shade runs to the tornus. There is a terminal series of small dark fuscous dots. The hindwings are whitish yellowish, yellower towards the apex.[2]
