Heteralcis isochra is a moth in the Lecithoceridae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1908. It is found in India (Assam).[1] and Sri Lanka.[2]

The wingspan is 12–14 mm. The forewings are light ochreous-yellowish with four somewhat oblique rather broad undefined fasciae of deeper ochreous or brownish suffusion, the first sometimes rather dark fuscous, the second narrowest. The hindwings are light ochreous-yellowish, with a subdorsal groove enclosing a long pencil of ochreous-yellowish hairs.[3]
