Stenoma pantogenes is a moth in the Depressariidae family. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1930. It is found in Brazil.

The wingspan is 28–30 mm. The forewings are pale brownish ochreous, with the extreme costal edge whitish and the stigmata blackish. The plical is placed obliquely beyond the first discal and there is a short slightly oblique streak of indistinct grey suffusion from the dorsum before the second discal, as well as a strongly excurved series of blackish dots from beneath the costa at three-fourths to near the dorsum before the tornus, strongly indented towards the costa. A marginal series of small black dots is found around the apex and termen. The hindwings are grey.
