Procometis monocalama is a moth in the family Autostichidae. It was described by Meyrick in 1890. It is found in Australia, where it has been recorded from New South Wales.[1]
The wingspan is about 18 mm. The forewings are ochreous-fuscous, irrorated with whitish and with a snow-white streak along the costa from the base to near the apex, bordered beneath by a broader rather dark ochreous-fuscous streak without white irroration, extending from the base to the apex. There is a short white longitudinal dash on the lower margin of the dark streak about the middle or obscurely continued to the base. The hindwings are rather light fuscous.[2]
