Cerconota consobrina is a moth of the Depressariidae family. It is found in Guyana.[1]

The wingspan is 20-21 mm. The forewings are violet-fuscous. The plical and first discal stigmata are darker fuscous, the plical obliquely posterior, the second discal dark fuscous. There are three cloudy dark fuscous lines, the first from one-third of the costa to the middle of the dorsum, interrupted between the stigmata, the second from the middle of the costa to four-fifths of the dorsum, shortly curved outwards around the end of the cell, the third from three-fourths of the costa to just before the tornus, rather curved outwards in the disc, somewhat waved. There is also a marginal series of dark fuscous dots around the apex and termen. The hindwings are grey.[2]
