Nemapogon inconditella is a moth of the family Tineidae. It is found in most of Europe[https://web.archive.org/web/20160305211353/http://www.faunaeur.org/full_results.php?id=433135 Fauna Europaea] and North Africa, including Morocco.

The wingspan is 12–16 mm.[http://www.hantsmoths.org.uk/species/0216a.php Hants Moths] Adults are similar to Nemapogon clematella. Both species have cream-white forewings, covered with light brown scales. However, inconditella has two spots at the base of the frontal margin. Furthermore, there is a dark spot in the middle.

The larvae feed on fungi, including Trametes versicolor.[http://www.microlepidoptera.nl/soorten/species.php?speciescode=120125&p=1 microlepidoptera.nl]
