Hypatima agriogramma is a moth in the family Gelechiidae. It was described by Meyrick in 1926.[1] It is found on Borneo.[2]

The wingspan is about 18 millimetres (0.71 in). The forewings are whitish-ochreous, with scattered brownish scales and three irregular black lines suffused brown, one subcostal from the base to near the middle, one along the fold throughout and one from the disc before one-third to just below the apex, with a branch along vein nine. There is a suffused dark fuscous streak along the costa from one-fourth to three-fifth, cut by oblique whitish strigulae at one-third and beyond the middle. There is some irregular brownish suffusion towards the dorsum and termen and two oblique whitish strigulae from the costa posteriorly, edged brown and separated by a brown stria running to the apex with a blackish dot towards the apex and a black linear apical dot. The hindwings are grey.[3]
