Sarisophora pycnospila is a moth in the Lecithoceridae family. It was described by Turner in 1919. It is found in Australia, where it has been recorded in Queensland.

The wingspan is 13-17 mm. The forewings are grey-whitish suffused with fuscous and with the markings and some scattered irroration dark-fuscous. The discal spots are large, the first discal at one-third, the plical slightly before it, the two nearly confluent, the second discal at two-thirds. There are three or four obscure spots on the costa beyond the middle. The hindwings are pale grey.
