Ornativalva ochraceofusca is a moth of the Gelechiidae family. It was described by Sattler in 1967. It is found in Turkey and Afghanistan.

There are some dark scales near the base of the forewings, without developing a clear basal streak. Adults have been recorded on wing in June, July and August.

The host plant is unknown, but might be a Tamarix species.
