Thiotricha complicata is a moth of the Gelechiidae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1918. It is found in southern India and Australia, where it has been recorded from Queensland.[1]
The wingspan is about 8 mm. The forewings are rather dark glossy purplish-grey with an oblique white line, suffused in the disc with yellow, from above the tornus to the apical portion of the costa, on which it is trifurcate, and a whitish line between this and the termen. There are cloudy thick dots at the apex and on the termen near the apex. The hindwings are grey.[2]
