Syllepte eriopisalis is a moth in the family Crambidae. It was described by Francis Walker in 1859. It is found on Borneo and in India.[1]

The wingspan is about 34 mm. Adults are fuscous grey, the forewings with the base of the costa fuscous. There is an obliquely sinuous antemedial fuscous line and a black speck in the cell. Both wings have a black discocellular lunule and postmedial minutely dentate fuscous line bent outwards between veins 5 and 2, then retracted to below the angle of the cell.[2]
