Enchocrates vesperascens is a moth in the family Depressariidae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1921. It is found in Australia, where it has been recorded from South Australia.[1]

The wingspan is about 19 mm. The forewings are grey, speckled whitish, with irregular dark grey irroratien. There are undefined markings of dark grey suffusion: an oblique blotch from the base of the costa confluent beneath with a transverse blotch from the costa at one-fourth, transverse blotches from the costa at the middle and two-thirds, and indications of a subterminal shade. The hindwings are pale grey.[2]
