Gemorodes delphinopa is a moth in the Xyloryctidae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1930. It is found in Burma.[1]

The wingspan is about 18 mm. The forewings are brownish, with the dorsal edge infuscated. There are two small cloudy dark fuscous dots rather obliquely placed in the disc at two-fifths, and three in a rather oblique-transverse curve at three-fifths. Immediately beyond the latter is a faint transverse fascia of fuscous suffusion. The hindwings are grey-whitish.[2]
