Stenoglene citrinus is a moth in the family Eupterotidae. It was described by Druce in 1886.^[1] It is found in Cameroon, the Central African Republic, the Democratic Republic of Congo (Equateur, East Kasai), Gabon and Nigeria.^[2]

The forewings are pale yellow, crossed about the middle, from the coastal to the inner margin, by a band of very small brown spots, beyond which is a second band, extending from the apex to the inner margin. The second band is very much wider, and near the inner margin, it has several whitish spots. There is also a submarginal row of minute dots extending from the apex to the anal angle. The hindwings are pale yellow, with a central and submarginal row of small brown spots.^[3]
