Stenoma fusistrigella is a moth of the family Depressariidae. It is found in Brazil (Amazonas).

Adults are very pale fawn colour with broad wings, the forewings rectangular at the tips, with a diffuse oblique dark fawn-coloured band, which extends from before the middle of the costa to the base of the interior border. There is a blackish point in the disc at two-thirds of the length and there are very minute marginal points of dark fawn colour. The exterior border is nearly straight and hardly oblique. The hindwings are yellowish cinereous.
