Agonopterix l-nigrum is a moth in the Oecophoridae family. It was described by Matsumura in 1931.[1] It is found in Japan[2] (Hokkaido) and the Russian Far East (Amur and Primorye regions).[3]
The wingspan is about 9 mm. The forewings are fuscous with a white basal patch bounded on the outside by a black line angled towards the costa. The costa is white, irrorated with chestnut in the centre of the cell at one-third to half. There is a black streak curved to the costal streak at the basal end.[4]
