Anacampsis lacteusochrella is a moth of the Gelechiidae family. It was described by Chambers in 1875. It is found in North America, where it has been recorded from California.[1][2]

Adults are creamy white or white very faintly suffused with ochreous, sparsely flecked with brown upon the forewings, which become towards the tip, suffused with greyish, or purplish-brown and ochreous, so that a white costal streak at the beginning of the cilia may be distinguished from the surrounding part of the wing.[3]
