Dichomeris crambaleas is a moth in the Gelechiidae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1913. It is found in India (Assam) and Taiwan.

The wingspan is 20–21 mm. The forewings are pale brownish-ochreous sometimes strewn with strigulae of blackish irroration, sometimes partially suffused with feruginous-brown in the disc and towards the dorsum, and on the veins posteriorly. There is sometimes a round spot of blackish suffusion in disc at one-third, and an oblique spot from dorsum at one-fourth directed towards it. The stigmata is blackish or dark ferruginous-brown, the discal approximated, the plical rather before the first discal. There is a small blackish mark on the costa at two-thirds and some blackish dots around the posterior part of the costa and termen. The hindwings are fuscous, darker towards the apex.
