Gonionota ustimacula is a moth in the Depressariidae family. It was described by Zeller in 1874. It is found in Chile.[1]
The wingspan is about 26 mm. The variety zelleri differs from the typical form in having a rounded grey spot upon the disc of the forewings below the cuneiform costal patch, to which it is united by a pale yellowish nebula. There is also an arched externo-discal series of dark grey spots, the uppermost of the series partly yellow and joining the inferior angle of the cuneiform patch. The hindwings are shining bronze-brown instead of white.[2]
