Fascista bimaculella is a moth of the family Gelechiidae. It is found in North America, where it has been recorded in the United States east of the Rocky Mountains.[1][2][3]

The forewings are shining dark purplish-brown or black with a large white spot on the disc just beyond the middle, and a white spot or streak which starts from the beginning of the costal cilia, but does not reach the dorsal margin.[4]
