Gonionota anisodes is a moth in the Depressariidae family. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1916. It is found in French Guiana and Brazil.

The wingspan is 16-17 mm. The forewings are ochreous brown, somewhat lighter and yellowish-tinged towards the dorsum and termen. There is a darker brown streak along the dorsum from one-fourth to three-fourths. A faint violet-whitish dot is found on the costa at two-fifths, and a fine indistinct oblique whitish strigula at three-fourths. The first discal stigma is minute and blackish, the second very small and white. The hindwings are grey.
