Antaeotricha chalinophanes is a moth in the family Depressariidae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1931. It is found in Bolivia.[1]

The wingspan is about 28 mm. The forewings are whitish-ochreous with white reflections, the subcostal area partially suffused white and the basal third of the costa greyish, some light brownish-ochreous suffusion beneath this and on a dorsal spot towards the base. The second discal stigma is moderate and blackish and there is some greyish-ochreous suffusion on the costa about three-fourths, where a slightly curved or bent shade runs to the tornus, with some faint whitish suffusion beyond this. The hindwings are light grey, tinged whitish towards the base.[2]
