Antaeotricha catharactis is a moth in the Depressariidae family. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1930. It is found in Brazil.
The wingspan is about 20 mm. The forewings are white with an oblong lilac-fuscous patch extending over the basal third of the dorsum and at the base to the costa. There is some lighter fuscous suffusion, consisting of four transverse subconfluent clouds, occupying the dorsal area from this to near the tornus, and reaching the fold. A small fuscous spot is found in the disc at one-third and there is a roundish blotch of light fuscous suffusion in the disc before the middle, nearly reaching the costa, edged posteriorly by a light ochreous bar preceded by some darker fuscous markings. The second discal stigma is greyish-ochreous, from just beyond this a thick light greyish-ochreous shade to the dorsum, and above this a small spot on the costa. The hindwings are light grey, with the apical area broadly white.
