Filinota vociferans is a moth in the Depressariidae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1930. It is found in Brazil (Rio de Janeiro).
The wingspan is about 19 mm. The forewings are orange-yellow with a fuscous streak edged red rising very obliquely from the base of the costa, gradually expanded to the disc where it occupies the median third of the length of the wing, then broadly dilated to the dorsum, where it extends from near the base to the tornus. The basal area is enclosed by this marked with a short red mark on the base of the dorsum, a short line on the base of the fold, and two others beyond this above and below the fold. There is a rather dark fuscous red-edged elongate pointed patch touching the preceding dark area in the middle of the disc and extending to the apex of the wing, its anterior portion broadly expanded to near the costa. The hindwings are whitish tinged yellowish towards the apex, with some pale rosy suffusion in the middle of the disc.
