Pseudalbara parvula is a moth in the family Drepanidae. It was described by John Henry Leech in 1890.[1] It is found in China (Zhejiang, Fujian, Hubei, Hunan, Sichuan, Guangxi, Manchuria), south-eastern Russia and Japan.[2]
The wingspan is about 24 mm. The ground colour of the forewings is mouse grey with two white dots at the end of the cell, from the first of which a dark line curves to the inner margin. Two other dark lines start at the apex, one descending with a slight curve to the outer angle, the other to the centre of the inner margin. At the apex is a small yellowish spot, bordered externally with black. The hindwings are brownish grey.[3]
