Stenoma corvula is a moth of the family Depressariidae. It is found in Colombia.[1]

The wingspan is about 21 mm. The forewings are dark purplish fuscous with the plical stigma black, connected with the base by a fine blackish line along the fold. The second discal stigma is black, followed by some slight scattered yellow-whitish irroration. The hindwings are dark fuscous, the costa with long dense projecting dark grey scales from near the base to the middle, sinuate beyond this, with a small tuft of scales beyond the sinuation.[2]
