Eupithecia kuldschaensis is a moth in the family Geometridae. It is found in Mongolia,[3] China and south-east Kazakhstan.[2] It has been found at an altitude between 1200 and 2000 meters, and is on wing in a single generation from mid-June to mid-July.[2]

Both fore- and hindwings are a pale ochre tinged with some grey, with the hindwings slightly paler than the forewings. On both wings, the terminal area is darkened with a weak and wavy subterminal line, which is white on the forewing and whitish on the hindwing. The forewing's costal area is pale grey.[2]
