Stenoma holcadica is a moth of the Depressariidae family. It is found in French Guiana.[1]

The wingspan is 22-24 mm. The forewings are brownish-rosy with blackish dots at the base of the costa and dorsum. The stigmata are blackish, the plical very obliquely beyond the first discal. There is a cloudy dot of dark fuscous irroration above and slightly beyond the first discal, and traces of an irregular line through the plical to the dorsum. A blotch of dark grey suffusion is found on the costa beyond the middle, giving rise to two series of black dots, the first irregularly sinuate-curved behind the cell and becoming obsolete towards the dorsum and the second very strongly curved to four-fifths of the dorsum. A marginal series of blackish dots is found around the apex and termen. The hindwings are grey.[2]
