Peleopoda spudasma is a moth in the Depressariidae family. It was described by Walsingham in 1912. It is found in Panama and Venezuela.[1]
The wingspan is about 17 mm. The forewings are very pale whitish ochreous, much shaded throughout with fawn-grey, with the exception of a pale patch from the end of the cell to the outer end of the fold. A fuscous discal spot at one-third, followed by another at the end of the cell, with a plical spot below them nearer to the latter than to the former. A fuscous marginal shade extends along the termen and is broken into spots around the apex and at the base of the costal cilia. The hindwings are whitish.[2]
