Chlamydastis elaeostola is a moth in the Depressariidae family. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1930. It is found in Pará, Brazil.

The wingspan is 18-19 mm. The forewings are light olive-greenish, with a few minute fuscous or dark fuscous specks and greyish-tinged transverse marks on the costa at one-third, the middle, and two-thirds, the first terminated by a blackish dot, the third giving rise to a fine greyish unevenly curved line minutely dotted black running to the tornus. The stigmata are small, indistinct and blackish, the plical almost obscured by a whitish dot, slightly beyond the first discal. There is an irregular dark grey blotch on the dorsum about two-thirds. The hindwings are dark grey.
