Stenoma paraplecta is a moth of the Depressariidae family. It is found in Brazil (Amazonas).^[1]

The wingspan is about 13 mm. The forewings are violet-grey, the costa and dorsum suffused darker, from the base to the end of the cell mostly suffused obscurely whitish-ochreous except on the costa and dorsum, and more vaguely to about four-fifths, between the cell and posterior half of the costa with four pale ochreous-yellowish gradually expanded interneural streaks ending abruptly before reaching the costa. There is a fine black marginal line around the apex and termen preceded by slender silvery-whitish-ochreous suffusion. The hindwings are grey with a dark grey marginal line around the apex.^[2]
