Stenolechia kodamai is a moth of the Gelechiidae family. It is found in Japan (Honshu) and Korea[1] (Yeonpyeongdo and Decheongdo).[2]

The wingspan is about 8 mm.[3] Adults are similar to Stenolechia bathrodyas, but lack the yellow scales on the forewings.

The larvae feed on Pinus densiflora. They mine the leaves of their host plant.[4]
