Torodora invariella is a moth in the family Lecithoceridae. It was described by Francis Walker in 1864. It is found on Borneo.[1]

Adults are cinereous aeneous (ash-bronze coloured), with the wings rather broad. The forewings have a minute oblique whitish mark on the costa at three-fourths of the length and a pale cinereous line on the base of the fringe. The costa is nearly straight and the exterior border is not oblique, but slightly excavated in front.[2]
