Compsolechia solidella is a moth of the Gelechiidae family. It was described by Walker in 1864. It is found in Brazil (Amazonas).

Adults are cupreous-ferruginous, silvery cinereous beneath, the forewings with a diffuse silvery cinereous subcostal streak, and with a transverse submarginal patch of the same hue. This patch is bordered on the outer side by a denticulated white line, beyond which the wing is rather paler, and contains a deep black subapical dot and some deep black elongate white-marked submarginal points. The marginal line is dark ferruginous. The hindwings are dark brown.
