Pseudargyrotoza conwagana is a moth of the family Tortricidae. It is found in Europe, China (Heilongjiang, Jilin, Shaanxi, Sichuan, Beijing, Shandong), South Korea, Japan, Russia (Siberia, Ussuri) and Asia Minor.[2]

The wingspan is 11–15 mm. The thorax is crested. The forewings are triangular, yellow, more or less suffused with orange or ferruginous and faintly darker-strigulated. The basal patch is often darker and always followed by a pale yellow dorsal mark. The central and terminal fasciae are often darker or blackish-mixed, edged with leaden-metallic dots. The hindwings are blackish - grey, lighter anteriorly. The larva yellow-whitish; dorsal line darker; head yellow-brownish.[3]

Adults are on wing from May to July.

The larvae feed on Fraxinus excelsior, Fraxinus mandshurica, Ligustrum (including Ligustrum lucidum) and Berberis species.
