Pseudonoorda minor is a moth in the family Crambidae. It was described by Eugene G. Munroe in 1974. It is found on New Guinea.[1]

The wingspan is about 18 mm. The forewings are translucent greyish fuscous up to the postmedial line and brown-tinged beyond. The costa is dark fuscous and there are weak traces of a dark-fuscous antemedial line. There is also a weak fuscous streak on the discocellular. The postmedial line is fuscous and the terminal line is dark. The hindwings are similar in colour, but the costal and anal areas are pale translucent yellowish grey.[2]
