Syncopacma sangiella, the brown sober, is a moth of the Gelechiidae family. It was described by Stainton in 1863. It is found in most of Europe, except the Benelux, Denmark and parts of the Balkan Peninsula.

The wingspan is 12–13 mm.

The larvae feed on Lotus corniculatus, living between leaves spun together with silk.
