Pseudotelphusa incana is a moth of the family Gelechiidae. It is found in North America, where it has been recorded from New York.[1][2]

The wingspan is 10–12 mm. The forewings are grey, with many off-white scales before the apices and a dark brown to black dot at the base of the fold and a pair of dark dots at one-fourth length, a pair just before middle, and a very small one at end of cell, dots with a few light orange scales preceding and succeeding the brown scales. The hindwings are grey.

The larvae feed on Malus sylvestris.[3]
