Scoparia ambigualis is a species of moth of the family Crambidae described by Friedrich Treitschke in 1829. It is found in Europe and possibly in Guangdong and Shanxi in China.[1]

The wingspan is 15–22 mm. The moth flies from May to September depending on the location.

The larvae feed on valerian and probably also on various mosses.
