Odites anasticta is a moth in the Depressariidae family. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1930. It is found in Madagascar.

The wingspan is 19-21 mm. The forewings are whitish ochreous, with a very faint pinkish tinge. The stigmata are dark fuscous, the plical very obliquely beyond the fiĀrst discal, somewhat nearer the second. There is an unevenly curved transverse series of small cloudy dark fuscous dots at about five-sixths and a pre-marginal series of similar dots around the apical part of the costa and termen. The hindwings are light grey, paler towards the base.
