Dichomeris illucescens is a moth in the Gelechiidae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1918.[1] It is found in India (Assam).[2]

The wingspan is about 21 mm. The forewings are rather dark brown, with a slight violet tinge and with faint small hardly darker spots above and below the fold at one-fifth. The stigmata is cloudy, obscurely darker, the plical somewhat before the first discal, the first discal rather large, the second transverse. There is a faintly paler cloudy subterminal shade, as well as indistinct marginal dark fuscous dots around the apex and termen. The hindwings are ochreous-whitish, the dorsum tinged grey and the apex and upper part of the termen suffused grey.[3]
