Sattleria graiaeella is a moth in the Gelechiidae family. It was described by Huemer and Hebert in 2011. It is found in the western Alps of Italy and France.[1]
The wingspan is 16.5–18.5 mm. The forewings are light cream-brown, mottled with whitish cream and with mid-brown along the costa. The black markings are well developed, consisting of a broad black stripe through the fold, an angulated dash in the middle at the end of the cell and a few black scales near the base. There is a dark brown line on the termen. The hindwings are light grey. Adults are on wing from the end of June to mid-August.[2]
