Syllepte zarialis is a moth in the family Crambidae first described by Charles Swinhoe in 1917. It is found in Papua New Guinea.[1]

Adults are cream coloured, almost pure white, the forewings with the costa pale chocolate and an outer marginal fine line, as well as a little apical suffusion of the same colour. The hindwings have the outer marginal line very faintly touched with the same tint of colour.[2]
