Voliba pycnosticta is a moth in the family Crambidae. It was described by Turner in 1908. It is found in Australia, where it has been recorded from Queensland.[1]
The wingspan is about 12 mm. The forewings are whitish, with fuscous, suffused markings. There is a basal patch and a transverse fascia and another in the middle, dilated on the costa. There is a spot on the costa, giving rise to a dentate line to the tornus and some fuscous suffusion on the termen. The hindwings are whitish, with some grey suffusion.[2]
