Lecithocera montiatilis is a moth in the Lecithoceridae family. It was described by K.T. Park in 2009. It is found in Thailand.

The wingspan is 14–15.5 mm. The forewings are densely covered with dark brownish scales with a small transversally elongate discal spot on the anterior margin of the cell medially and a narrow blackish, oblique streak at the end of the cell, often extended nearly to the posterior margin of the wing. The hindwings are pale brownish grey.

Etymology

The species name is derived from Latin mons (meaning mountain) with the Latin suffix atilis (meaning found in).
