Aroga mesostrepta is a moth of the family Gelechiidae first described by Edward Meyrick in 1932. It is found in Japan, the Russian Far East and Korea.[1]

The wingspan is about 18 mm. The forewings are blackish with white markings. There is a narrow oblique fascia from the costa, connected on the dorsum by narrow streaks with the base and with a narrow irregular ill-defined postmedian transverse fascia which forms a slender abrupt loop inwards in the middle. There are opposite triangular spots on the costa and tornus, as well as ill-defined terminal dots. The hindwings are grey.[2]
