Gonioterma crocoptila is a moth of the Depressariidae family. It is found in Guyana.[1]
The wingspan is about 16 mm. The forewings are whitish-fuscous with the costal edge whitish-ochreous. The stigmata are dark fuscous, the plical midway between the discal. There are subtriangular dark fuscous spots on the costa at the middle and four-fifths, from the latter a curved series of dark fuscous dots runs to the dorsum before the tornus. There is also a marginal series of blackish dots around the apex and termen. The hindwings are ochreous-whitish with a long rather deep ochreous-yellow hairpencil lying along the dorsum from the base.[2]
