Kertomesis anaphracta is a moth in the family Autostichidae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1907. It is found in Bhutan[1] and India.
The wingspan is 12–13 mm. The forewings are ochreous whitish or pale whitish ochreous, thinly sprinkled with fuscous. There is a small blackish spot on the base of the costa. The stigmata are blackish, the plical somewhat beyond the first discal, the second discal connected by a slightly incurved blackish streak with the dorsum before the tornus, followed by an undefined band of darker irroration (sprinkles) from three-fourths of the costa to the tornus. There are undefined spots of blackish irroration around the apex and termen. The hindwings are grey.[2]
