Agnidra fenestra is a moth in the family Drepanidae. It was described by John Henry Leech in 1898.[1] It is found in north-eastern Myanmar and the Chinese provinces of Sichuan, Yunnan and Shaanxi.

The wingspan is 12–14 mm for males and 13–15.5 mm for females. Adults resemble a small Agnidra corticata or Agnidra vinacea in coloration and colour pattern, but are distinguished by translucent patches at the distal end of the cell and well-defined confluent postmedial fascia on the forewings and hindwings.[2]
