Ardozyga chalazodes is a species of moth in the family Gelechiidae. It was described by Turner in 1919. It is found in Australia, where it has been recorded from Queensland.[1]

The wingspan is about 14 mm (0.55 in). The forewings are brown irregularly mixed with ochreous-whitish, towards the termen reddish brown. There are fuscous dots on the costa at one-sixth and one-third and a fine median longitudinal fuscous line from one-third to two-thirds, a similar line from two-thirds of the costa to the apex. The hindwings are dark-fuscous densely irrorated with whitish.[2]
