Lasiarchis pycnodes is a moth in the Gelechiidae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1909. It is found in South Africa (Gauteng).[1][2]
The wingspan is 21–22 mm. The forewings are fuscous with an indistinct blackish dot beneath the costa near the base. The stigmata are blackish, partially edged with light greyish-ochreous, the plical larger, obliquely before the first discal. The costa is somewhat suffused with pale greyish-ochreous towards the middle and there is a suffused pale greyish-ochreous spot on the costa about three-fourths, with faint traces of a curved transverse line rising from it. The hindwings are grey, becoming paler and tinged with whitish-ochreous towards the base.[3]
