Stenoma trirecta is a moth in the Depressariidae family. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1931. It is found in Brazil.

The wingspan is about 31 mm. The forewings are whitish fuscous speckled dark fuscous, the veins indicated by faint darker lines. There are three nearly straight dark brown transverse lines, the first about one-third, rather oblique, obsolete at the extremities, the second beyond the middle, nearly parallel, the third from four-fifths of the costa to just before the tornus, slightly excurved on the lower half. There is a dark brown terminal line. The hindwings are grey.
