Iulota triglossa is a moth of the Gelechiidae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1904. It is found in Australia, where it has been recorded from Tasmania.

The wingspan is 14-15 mm. The forewings are golden-ochreous-yellow with a whitish-pink costal streak mixed with fuscous and with a narrow blackish median longitudinal streak from the base to the apex, the upper edge sharply defined, straight, indented before one-fourth, margined with a streak of white suffusion, the lower edge suffused with golden-brown. The dorsal area is broadly suffused with pale pink sprinkled with fuscous. The hindwings are light grey.
