Tinea conferta is a species of moth in the family Tineidae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1914. However the placement of this species within the genus Tinea is in doubt. As a result, this species has been referred to as Tinea (s.l.) conferta. This species is endemic to New Zealand. This species has a pair of yellow marks near the dorsum with dark patches between these.
