Hypatima syncrypta is a moth in the Gelechiidae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1916. It is found in Sri Lanka.

The wingspan is 15-16 mm. The forewings are white, irregularly sprinkled with grey, and strewn throughout with small cloudy dark grey spots arranged in transverse series, those of the median area suffused together with purplish-grey and irrorated with dark fuscous, forming an undefined dark transverse band occupying more than one-third of the wing. The hindwings are pale grey.
