Cerconota robiginosa is a moth of the Depressariidae family. It is found in Brazil (Amazonas).^[1]

The wingspan is about 16 mm. The forewings are pale grey with the costal edge ochreous-white, with oblique dark grey marks at the base, one-fourth, and one-third, a spot in the middle, and a larger triangular spot at four-fifths. There is an irregularly triangular light pinkish-brown patch extending on the dorsum from the base to the middle, its apex reaching nearly to the median costal spot. The second discal stigma is dark fuscous and there is an irregular light pinkish-brown shade from the median costal spot obtusely angulated in the middle to the dorsum at three-fourths, and a curved shade from the posterior costal spot to the tornus. There is also a marginal series of blackish dots around the apex and termen. The hindwings are grey.^[2]
