Pycnarmon sarumalis is a moth in the family Crambidae. It was described by William Jacob Holland in 1900. It is found in Buru, Indonesia.[1]

The wingspan is about 21 mm. The wings are shining white, crossed by a subbasal transverse brown line. There is a pale linear brown line at the end of the cell, with below it a similar brown line, and just beyond the latter, on the inner margin about its outer third, a well-defined black point. A narrow brown line runs from the costa before the apex toward the inner angle. The hindwings are traversed by an irregularly curved narrow pale brown median transverse line.[2]
