Gymnobathra sarcoxantha is a moth in the family Oecophoridae first described by Edward Meyrick in 1883.[2][3] It is endemic to New Zealand.[1] It has been hypothesised that this species likely belongs to another genus.[1]

Adults are attracted to light and have been collected via a mercury vapour light trap.[4]
