Hoploscopa is a genus of snout moths in the subfamily Hoploscopinae of the family Crambidae.^[2] The genus was described by Edward Meyrick in 1886, with Hoploscopa astrapias as type species.^[1]

A recent taxonomic study using morphology and DNA data described an additional 26 species,^[3] so that the genus currently comprises 42 species.^[1] At least 30 more species await scientific description.^[3]

The caterpillars are reported to feed on ferns.^[3]^[4]
