Pycnarmon aripanalis is a moth in the family Crambidae. It was described by George Hampson in 1899. It is found in Australia, where it has been recorded from Queensland.[1]

The wingspan is about 22 mm. Adults are white, the forewings with a black spot at the base of the costa and a subbasal series of three spots. The antemedial line is represented by spots on the costa and the inner margin. There is a speck towards the end of the cell and a large discoidal spot. The postmedial line is sinuous and has spots on the costa and inner margin. There is a dentate subterminal line developing into a spot in the middle, as well as a terminal series of points.
