The Silky Wainscot (Chilodes maritimus) is a moth of the Noctuidae family. It is found in most of Europe.

The wingspan is 29–36 mm. Adults are on wing from June to August.

The larvae are partially carnivorous, feeding on insects (including pupae of other wainscots) internally within the stems of Phragmites australis.
