Hellinsia venapunctus is a moth of the family Pterophoridae first described by William Barnes and Arthur Ward Lindsey in 1921.

The color of the head is whitish ocherous between the antennae and elsewhere it is light brown.

The forewings are concolorous with the thorax, but darker toward the costa, especially in the first lobe, though this shade is scarcely evident in some specimens.

In the outer margin of the second lobe there are four short, dark dashes on the tips of the veins.

A similar but heavier spot occurs on the inner margin of the first lobe a short distance before its apex.
