Noctueliopsis puertalis is a moth in the Crambidae family. It was described by William Barnes and James Halliday McDunnough in 1912.[1] It is found in North America, where it has been recorded from Arizona, California and Texas.[2]
The wingspan is about 15 mm. The forewings are pale ochreous, heavily shaded with brown, especially in the basal and terminal areas, leaving the median space as a broad paler band across the wings. There are faint traces of a dark basal line. The hindwings are smoky brown.[3] Adults have been recorded on wing from March to May and from August to September.
