Lecithocera latiola is a moth in the Lecithoceridae family. It is found in Taiwan.[2]
The wingspan is 17-19 mm. The forewings become broader toward the apex. The ground color is pale ochreous, with brown scales scattered sparsely beyond two thirds of the length. There are two dark-brown discal spots, a small one in the middle and a large one at end of the cell. The hindwings are greyish yellow.
The species name is derived from the Latin latus (meaning broad) and refers to the relatively broad forewings.
