Trichoboscis crocosema is a moth in the Lecithoceridae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1929. It is found in India (Andaman Islands).

The wingspan is 13-14 mm. The forewings are purple-fuscous irrorated dark fuscous and slightly sprinkled whitish, the stigmata forming small obscure cloudy blackish spots, the plical slightly before the first discal. There is an elongate suffused light ochreous-yellowish mark on the costa at four-fifths. The hindwings are grey, darker towards the apex.
