Procometis hylonoma is a moth in the family Autostichidae. It was described by Meyrick in 1890. It is found in Australia, where it has been recorded from New South Wales, Victoria, and South Australia.[1]
The wingspan is 18–25 mm. The forewings are white, more or less irrorated irregularly with ochreous-fuscous, sometimes suffused with whitish-ochreous on the dorsal half. There is a fuscous dot on the fold beneath the middle, and another in the disc at two-thirds, sometimes very indistinct. The hindwings are light fuscous, darker towards the hindmargin, paler and more whitish-ochreous towards the base.[2]
