Syllepte ningpoalis is a moth in the family Crambidae. It was described by John Henry Leech in 1889. It is found in China.[1]

The wingspan is about 32 mm. The forewings are fuscous brown with a pale yellow quadrate spot about the middle of the wing towards the costa, followed by a large irregular-shaped blotch of the same colour, beyond which are two colon-like dots. The central portion of the costa is orange. The hindwings are fuscous brown, rather paler along the inner margin.[2]
