Pedois ceramora is a moth in the Depressariidae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1902. It is found in Australia, where it has been recorded from Victoria.[1]

The wingspan is 18–23 mm. The forewings are fuscous, sometimes reddish-tinged, sprinkled with dark fuscous. The anterior half is more or less mixed with ochreous-whitish. The stigmata are indistinct and dark fuscous, the plical beneath the first discal and there is a thick cloudy dentate angulated ochreous-whitish subterminal line, near and parallel to the posterior half of the costa and termen. There is a terminal series of dark spots. The hindwings are light grey, paler towards the base.[2]
