Gnorimoschema jalavai is a moth of the Gelechiidae family. It is found in southern Russia (Altai Krai, Tuva, Irkutsk Oblast, Buryatia, Zabaykalsky Krai) and the Chukotka Peninsula in the north-eastern Russian Far East. It was recently reported from Canada (Yukon).

The forewings are dark brown with a pair of large subterminal white spots that nearly touch and appear to form an interrupted band.[1]
