Dicepolia marionalis is a species of moth of the family Crambidae. It is found in Madagascar.[1]
The size stated in the original description is: wingspan of 23 mm (0.91 in); length of the forewings: 22 mm (0.87 in). Obviously one of these figures must be incorrect.
Viette placed this moth in close relationship to: Autocharis carnosalis (Saalmüller, 1880).[2]
