Dysoptus pseudargus is a species of moth in the family Arrhenophanidae. It is known only from the lowland Amazonian Region of southern Peru.
The length of the forewings is 5-5.5 mm for males. Adults are on wing from September to November.
Etymology[]
The specific name is derived from the Greek pseudos (fallacy, lie) and argos (white), in reference to the superficial similarity of this species to the more apomorphic Dysoptus argus.
