Sattleria cottiella is a moth in the Gelechiidae family. It was described by Huemer and Hebert in 2011. It is found in the southern Cottian Alps of Italy.[1]
The wingspan is 15-17 mm. The forewings are light brownish grey, rusty brown along the fold and in the medial area. There is an indistinct angulate light grey fascia at four-fifths and a number of black markings, consisting of a dash in the fold, a subcostal spot at two-fifths and an angulated spot at three-fifths in the middle. There is also some black mottling at the base and along the costa and there are black dots on the termen. The hindwings are light grey. Adults are on wing from late July to early August.[2]
