Pycnarmon sarumalis is a moth in the Crambidae family. It was described by Holland in 1900. It is found in Indonesia (Buru).

The wingspan is about 21 mm. The wings are shining white, crossed by a subbasal transverse brown line. There is a pale linear brown line at the end of the cell, with below it a similar brown line, and just beyond the latter, on the inner margin about its outer third, a well-defined black point. A narrow brown line runs from the costa before the apex toward the inner angle. The hindwings are traversed by an irregularly curved narrow pale brown median transverse line.
