Stomopteryx hungaricella is a moth of the Gelechiidae family. It was described by Gozmány in 1957. It is found in France, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania, as well as on Sardinia and Crete.

Adults are similar to Stomopteryx orthogonella, but nearly uniformly black rather than brown, and without any trace of streaks or spots.
