Pycnarmon glaucias is a moth in the Crambidae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1894. It is found on Borneo.

The wingspan is about 28 mm. The forewings are white with a greyish-ochreous subcostal streak from the base to beyond the middle and black basal and subbasal dots on the costa. The lines are pale greyish-ochreous, broad and fascia-like. There is a round black discal spot and a black dot on the costa, and another, whitish-centred, on the costal end of the second line. There is a pale greyish-ochreous hindmarginal streak, preceded by a black dot below middle. The hindwings are white with a black discal dot, the second line and posterior markings as in forewings.
