Recurvaria ornatipalpella is a moth of the family Gelechiidae. It is found in the West Indies, where it has been recorded from Grenada.[1]
The wingspan is about 8 mm (0.31 in). The forewings are olive-grey, with a slight greenish tinge and a short black basal patch occupying the costal half, which is followed by a smaller costal patch at one-third, with a black dorsal patch a little beyond it. At the upper extremity of the latter is a round black spot on the cell, almost connected with it. Another small black costal patch lies at the commencement of the costal cilia and a round black dot beneath it at the end of the cell. A few black scales are scattered along the termen at the base of the olive-grey cilia. The hindwings are shining and grey.[2]
