Eupselia hypsichora is a moth in the Depressariidae family. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1906. It is found in Australia, where it has been recorded from Western Australia.

The wingspan is 12-13 mm. The forewings are dark fuscous, slightly purplish tinged and with a broad ochreous-yellow fascia from the middle of the costa, where it includes a dark fuscous dot, to the dorsum, where it extends from one-third to near the tornus, narrowed upwards, the edges slightly curved inwards. The hindwings are dark fuscous, the basal half sometimes more or less wholly suffused with ochreous yellow.
