Filinota rhodograpta is a moth in the family Depressariidae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1915. It is found in Guyana and Pará, Brazil.[1]
The wingspan is about 17 mm. The forewings are dark grey with a brassy-golden-yellow streak along the costa interrupted by ground colour at one-fourth, its lower edge with a projection in the middle terminated by a crimson dot, continued around the apex and termen to below the middle and then curved in along vein 3 to the angle of the cell. Beyond the cell is an elongate silvery-white patch edged with crimson and there are erect triangular silvery-white blotches edged with crimson on the dorsum at one-fourth and before the termen, reaching more than half across the wing. Between these is an irregular-oval yellow blotch in the disc, edged beneath by a crimson mark. The hindwings are white.[2]
