Lecithocera paroena is a moth in the family Lecithoceridae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1906. It is found in Sri Lanka.[1]
The wingspan is 23–25 mm. The forewings are light brownish ochreous, somewhat sprinkled with pale brownish and a few black scales. There is a minute black subcostal dot near the base. The discal stigmata are small, cloudy and dark brown, the first resting on a transverse cloudy purple-fuscous mark beneath it, between the first and the second a cloudy fuscous dot in the disc rather above them. There is also a transverse purple-brownish fascia at about three-fourths, somewhat angulated in the middle, faint towards the costa, stronger and much darker on the dorsal half. The hindwings are light fuscous, ochreous tinged.[2]
