Sorolopha archimedias is a moth of the Tortricidae family. It is found in Thailand, China, Sri Lanka, India, Java and Australia[1] (Queensland).

The wingspan is about 15 mm. Adults have brown forewings with a pale area at the apex with a white outline containing a large brown spot, and a white outlined brown area of erect scales at the back of the thorax.[2]

The larvae feed on Cinnamomum verum, Cinnamomum camphora, Syzygium aromaticum and Litsea glutinosa. They live in a silken web, spun between the leaves of the host plant.
