Autosticha siccivora is a moth in the Autostichidae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1935. It is found in Indonesia (Java).[1]
The wingspan is about 11 mm. The forewings are light brown irrorated fuscous with a dark fuscous dot on the base of the costa. The stigmata are rather large, dark fuscous, the plical elongate, directly beneath the first discal, with a small similar spot on the dorsum directly beneath the second discal and a curved series of large dark fuscous dots just before the margin around the posterior third of the costa and termen. The hindwings are grey.
The larvae feed on the dry leaves of Pithecolobium species.[2]
