Triaxomera fulvimitrella, the four-spotted clothes moth, is a moth of the Tineidae family. It is found in most of Europe, except Ireland, the Iberian Peninsula, Italy, Slovenia and most of the Balkan Peninsula. The habitat consists of woodlands.

The wingspan is 15–22 mm. Adults are on wing from May to July.

The larvae feed in dead wood or on bracket fungi (including Inonotus radiatus and Piptoporus betulinus), especially those growing on Fagus and Quercus species. Larvae can be found from September onwards during the winter months.
