Armatophallus exoenota is a moth of the Gelechiidae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1918. It is found in Gambia, Cameroon, Ethiopia, Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Zimbabwe,[1] Namibia and South Africa.[2][3]
The wingspan is 12.5-20.1 mm. The forewings are dark red-brown, suffusedly mixed with dark purplish-fuscous and with a short indistinct light reddish-ochreous transverse mark from the costa almost at the base. The plical and second discal stigmata are small, indistinct and blackish and there is a small indistinct spot of ochreous suffusion on the costa at three-fourths. The hindwings are rather dark grey.[4] Adults are on wing from October to May and in August.
