Chlamydastis stagnicolor is a moth of the Depressariidae family. It is found in Brazil.[1]

The wingspan is 18–19 mm. The forewings are grey-whitish, with a faint greenish tinge and small dark grey spots on the costa at one-fourth, the middle, and three-fourths, as well as faint irregular curved lines from each, hardly perceptibly indicated by grey suffusion, the upper half of the second rather strongly outwards-oblique and marked with three or four indistinct darker dots. There is a faint subterminal line also indicated and there is a marginal series of grey dots around the apex and termen. The hindwings are rather dark grey.[2]
