Stomopteryx frivola is a moth of the family Gelechiidae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1926. It is found in South Africa.[1][2]
The wingspan is about 15 mm (0.59 in). The forewings are violet grey sprinkled with blackish. The stigmata form small cloudy darker spots followed by slight whitish-grey-ochreous scales, the discal approximated and the plical obliquely before the first discal. There is an irregular whitish angulated transverse line at three-fourths, tinged with greyish ochreous in the disc, on the costa forming a small spot. The hindwings are grey.[3]
