Aristotelia turbida is a moth of the family Gelechiidae. It was described by Alfred Jefferis Turner in 1919. It is found in Australia, where it has been recorded from Queensland.[1]

The wingspan is about 10 mm. The forewings are ochreous-whitish irrorated with dark-fuscous and with a dark-fuscous dot near the base above the fold and a discal dot at one-third confluent with another beneath it on the fold to form an irregular spot. There is a spot above the middle before half, and another beneath the middle beyond half. The hindwings are pale-grey.[2]
