Apilocrocis glaucosia is a moth in the family Crambidae. It was described by George Hampson in 1912. It is found in Panama,[1] Guatemala and Mexico.

The wingspan is 28–32 mm. The forewings are pale glaucous grey. The costa is white with a fulvous streak below it and there is a fuscous subbasal shade from the cell to the inner margin, followed by a whitish band. There is also a quadrate semihyaline white spot just beyond the discocellulars. The hindwings are pale glaucous grey with a semihyaline white basal area.[2]
