Gnorimoschema versicolorella is a moth in the Gelechiidae family. It was described by Chambers in 1872. It is found in North America, where it has been recorded from Kentucky.[1][2]

The forewings are ochreous, thickly dusted with dark brown, but a little less thickly in the basal fourth of the wing, with a brown streak across the base of the wing, and a brown streak extending obliquely from the costa about the basal fourth, to the fold, which, however, is scarcely distinguishable from the thickly dusted portion of the wing behind it. The hindwings are pale fuscous.[3]
