Choristostigma roseopennalis is a moth in the Crambidae family. It was described by Hulst in 1886. It is found in Mexico and the United States, where it has been recorded from Arizona, Georgia, Indiana, Maryland, North Carolina, Ohio, Tennessee and Texas.

The wingspan is about 18 mm. The forewings are canary yellow and the costa is bright rosy for two-thirds from the base. There is a bright rosy outer band, which merges with a broad marginal band of the same colour at the inner angle. The hindwings are white. Adults are on wing from May to September.
