Gnorimoschema bacchariselloides is a moth in the Gelechiidae family. It was described by Powell and Povolný in 2001. It is found in North America, where it has been recorded from California,[1][2] Montana and Alberta.[3]

The length of the forewings is 7-8.2 mm. The forewings are covered by a mixture of greyish and rust scales. There is a pale rust basal patch, defined outwardly by a whitish transverse band extending obliquely from the costa to the dorsal margin, extending outward in the dorsal area and curving upward as a crescentic streak. There are two brownish stigmata indicated at about the middle and two-thirds and there are also some scales with blackish tips indicating submarginal spots in the apical area. The hindwings are grey. Adults have been recorded on wing in September and October.[4]
