Orthocomotis is a genus of moths belonging to the family Tortricidae.
==Taxonomy== Orthocomotis was initially classified as a member of the tribe Euliini. It was shifted to the tribe Polyorthini based on genital morphology; however, more recent research has shown that Orthocomotis should be moved back into the tribe Euliini.
