Taygete citranthes is a moth in the Autostichidae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1923. It is found in Brazil (Para).

The wingspan is 7-8 mm. The forewings are pale yellow, with a few scattered blackish and fulvous scales. There are small blackish spots on the costa at the base, one-third and three-fifths. There are indistinct dots of blackish irroration indicating the stigmata, the plical very obliquely before the first discal, sometimes some undefined and variably indicated slight fulvous streaks in the disc and an irregular black marginal line around the apex. The hindwings are dark grey.
