Ephysteris sirota is a moth in the Gelechiidae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1908. It is found in South Africa (Gauteng, KwaZulu-Natal and Limpopo).

The wingspan is about 15 mm. The forewings are ochreous-whitish, faintly streaked longitudinally with pale brownish-ochreous and with some dark fuscous irroration tending to form indistinct streaks on the veins. The plical stigma is small and fuscous and the second discal is formed by a small round spot of dark fuscous irroration. The hindwings are grey-whitish.
