Thymiatris melitacma is a moth in the Xyloryctidae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1907. It is found in India (Assam).

The wingspan is 42-44 mm. The forewings are ochreous-whitish, irrorated with fuscous and dark fuscous, the costa and subcostal veins suffused with dark fuscous. There are two cloudy dark fuscous dots placed transversely in the disc beyond three-fifths and traces of a cloudy darker angulated subterminal line. There is also an ochreous-yellowish streak mixed with fuscous around the apex and termen to near the tornus. The hindwings are whitish-ochreous.
