Garrha cylicotypa is a moth in the Oecophoridae family. It was described by Turner in 1946.[1] It is found in Australia, where it has been recorded from Queensland.[2]

The wingspan is about 24 mm. The forewings are whitish-ochreous, the costal edge faintly rosy and with fuscous markings. There is a broad dorsal stripe from near the base to near the tornus. Resting on this are three spots and there is also a discal dot at one-third, as well as a few scattered scales in the posterior part of the disc and minute terminal dots. The hindwings are pale ochreous.[3]
