Pedois cosmopoda is a moth in the Depressariidae family. It was described by Turner in 1900. It is found in Australia, where it has been recorded from Queensland and New South Wales.[1][2]
The wingspan is 16-18 mm. The forewings are whitish-grey irrorated with dark-fuscous and with the costal edge pink from the base to the apex. The irroration is particularly dense along the inner-marginal portion of the disc, and in the posterior portion of the disc it shows a tendency to form short streaks parallel to the veins. The hindwings are grey, paler towards the base.[3]
