Cophomantella alphanozoma is a moth in the family Lecithoceridae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1926. It is known from Sierra Leone and Uganda.[1][2]
The wingspan is 15–16 mm. The forewings are dark purplish-slaty fuscous with undefined slightly oblique fasciae of blackish suffusion about one-third and two-thirds, disappearing in oblique lights, the second followed by an ochreous-whitish spot on the costa at three-fourths. The hindwings are rather dark grey.[3]
