Hesperilla malindeva, the malindeva skipper or two-spotted sedge-skipper, is a butterfly of the family Hesperiidae. It is found in the Australian states of New South Wales and Queensland.
The wingspan is about 30 mm.
The larvae feed on Gahnia aspera. They make a shelter by rolling leaves of their host into a tube. They remain in this shelter during the day and come out to feed at night.
