Thiotricha clinopeda is a moth of the family Gelechiidae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1918. It is found in Sri Lanka and Kodagu district in southern India.[1]
The wingspan is 9–11 mm. The forewings are shining white with a very oblique dark fuscous fasciate blotch from the dorsum at one-third, reaching more than halfway across the wing, dilated downwards. There is an oblique wedge-shaped dark fuscous spot from the dorsum at two-thirds, its apex confluent with the angle of the following line. A very oblique wedge-shaped dark fuscous streak is found from the costa at three-fourths, its apex sending a dark fuscous line to the tornus, thickened and acutely angulated inwards on the fold. There is also a fuscous spot on the costa near the apex and a dark fuscous spot on the termen beneath the apex, as well as a small black apical spot, preceded and followed by minute white dots. The hindwings are grey, paler in the disc anteriorly.[2]
