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

The wingspan is about 20 mm. The forewings are whitish ochreous, suffused light brownish ochreous towards the dorsum posteriorly. There is some irregular dark brown marking on and beneath the fold from the base leading to a semi-oval dark brown spot on the dorsum at one-fourth and an oval dark brown blotch in the disc above the middle, as well as a roundish spot close beneath the posterior end of this. There is also an almost marginal series of small cloudy brownish spots around the apex and termen. The hindwings are pale whitish ochreous.
