Oegoconia praeramis is a moth in the Autostichidae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1918. It is found in Sri Lanka.

The wingspan is about 13 mm. The forewings are ochreous-whitish suffusedly sprinkled pale yellow-ochreous. The markings are blackish, with the costal and dorsal marks at the base. There is a small costal spot near the base, and some scales beneath it. A moderately broad inwardly oblique fascia is found beyond the middle, with a fasciate lobe extending from the lower half to the disc at two-fifths (representing the anterior stigmata). There are also three or four marginal dots towards the apex. The hindwings are grey.
