Tyspanodes albidalis is a moth in the family Crambidae. It was described by George Hampson in 1912. It is found on the Solomon Islands, where it has been recorded from Bougainville Island.[1]

The wingspan is about 22 mm. The forewings are dirty white, the end of the cell and area just before the apex faintly tinged with yellow. There is a faint obliquely curved antemedial line, a slight discoidal lunule, and traces of a curved postmedial line. The hindwings are rather dirty white.[2]
