Gelechia delapsa is a moth of the Gelechiidae family. It is found in Brazil.[1]

The wingspan is about 22 mm. The forewings are pale brownish-ochreous with the basal area of the wing to one-third of the costa and to two-thirds of the dorsum fuscous suffusedly mixed blackish, edge suffused. The stigmata form small suffused dark fuscous spots, the plical obliquely before the first discal, within the edge of the dark area. There is a slight dark fuscous mark beneath the costa before the middle and a marginal series of small dark fuscous dots around the posterior part of the costa and termen. The hindwings are light grey irrorated fuscous.[2]
