Dragmatucha bivia is a moth in the Lecithoceridae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1918. It is found in South Africa.

The wingspan is about 22 mm. The forewings are dark purplish-fuscous with a nearly straight whitish-ochreous transverse streak at one-fourth and a nearly straight whitish-ochreous line from the costa near the apex to the dorsum before the tornus. The hindwings are grey, darker towards the apex and with a small ochreous-white spot on the costa near the apex, where a cloudy whitish line runs near the termen to below its middle.
