Cryptophasa chionotarsa is a moth in the family Xyloryctidae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1925. It is found on New Guinea.[1]
The wingspan is 42–43 mm. The forewings are rather dark fuscous, on the dorsal half with a few scattered white scales and with a rather thick attenuated suffused dark fuscous dorsal streak. There is an obscure suffused dark fuscous transverse spot on the end of the cell and a patch of white speckling before the termen. The hindwings are grey.[2]
