Dausara orionalis is a moth in the family Crambidae. It was described by Francis Walker in 1859. It is found on Borneo.[1]

The wings are brown with purple and cupreous reflections. The forewings are yellowish white at the base, except along the costa. There is a white semihyaline (almost glasslike) purple-tinged band which is bordered with blackish on the outer margin. There is also a brown subcostal spot which is connected with the brown costa. The hindwings are white, but semihyaline at the base.[2]
