Compsolechia parmata is a moth of the Gelechiidae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1918. It is found in Colombia.

The wingspan is about 17 mm. The forewings are dark ash-grey with a rounded black blotch extending on the costa from one-fifth to the middle and reaching two-thirds across the wing, edged with some scattered ochreous-whitish scales. There is a similarly edged subtriangular black spot in the disc at two-thirds and an ochreous-white dot on the costa at three-fourths. The hindwings are grey.
