Epiphthora cryolopha is a moth of the Gelechiidae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1904. It is found in Australia, where it has been recorded from Queensland.[1]
The wingspan is about 14 mm. The forewings are greyish-ochreous, the veins broadly suffused with white so as almost to obscure the groundcolour. There is a broad white costal streak, occupying two-fifths of the wing, from the base to near the apex, narrowed posteriorly, the lower edge straight. The hindwings are whitish-grey.[2]
