Syllepte angulifera is a moth in the family Crambidae. It was described by Herbert Druce in 1895. It is found in Guatemala,[1] Costa Rica, Panama and Mexico.[2]

The forewings and hindwings are hyaline white, the former crossed near the apex by a narrow brownish line which almost reaches the anal angle and then turns inwards along the inner margin. The hindwings have a narrow V-shaped brownish line below the middle, which does not touch either margin.[3]
