Anacampsis solemnella is a moth of the family Gelechiidae. It was described by Hugo Theodor Christoph in 1882. It is found in Japan and the Russian Far East.[1]

The wingspan is about 15 mm. The forewings are dark fuscous, speckled grey whitish. The stigmata are obscurely blackish, the plical rather obliquely before the first discal. There is a slightly incurved white line from four-fifths of the costa to the dorsum before the tornus, thickened towards the costa, preceded by a band of blackish suffusion. The hindwings are dark grey.[2]

The larvae feed on Prunus salicina.
