Commatica cyanorrhoa is a moth in the Gelechiidae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1914. It is found in Guyana and Brazil.[1]

The wingspan is 14-16 mm. The forewings are dark violet-fuscous, the dorsal half suffused with glossy blue. The stigmata are obscure and dark fuscous, with the plical very obliquely before the first discal. There is a fine very oblique white strigula from the costa before two-thirds, continued faintly to near the apex, the costal area beyond this suffused with blackish. There is also a small blackish apical spot. The hindwings are dark fuscous.[2]
