Scrobipalpula equatoriella is a moth in the family Gelechiidae. It was described by Bernard Landry in 2010. It is found on the Galápagos Islands.[1]

The length of the forewings is 2.5-2.7 mm. The forewings are cream tinged with ochreous below the fold from the base to three-fifths. Above the fold, the colour is mostly greyish brown, with more or less distinct diagonal cream bands at one-fifth, two-fifths and four-fifths, with dark brown dashes in the fold at two-fifths and along the midline at three-fifths and subapically. There is also light ochreous to brown at the termen, as a spot submedially, and below the costa as a broken line, and in the fold. The hindwings are blackish brown, becoming paler greyish brown on the distal one-third.
