Symmetrischema pallidochrella is a moth in the Gelechiidae family. It was described by Chambers in 1872. It is found in North America, where it has been recorded Kentucky, Illinois, Ohio and Oklahoma.[1][2]

The base of the forewings is pale ochreous, sparsely dusted with fuscous and with a fuscous line across the wing close to the base. A fuscous streak passes obliquely backwards to the fold at the basal one-fourth, and then the wing is pale ochreous to the apex, rather densely dusted with fuscous and dark ochreous, with the extreme apex fuscous. The hindwings are pale fuscous.[3]
