Acantholipes hypenoides is a species of moth in the family Erebidae. It is found in India (Khasia Hills,[2] Darjeeling).
The forewings are greyish ochreous-brown, covered with dark-brown speckles and with a transverse lower discal blackish-brown band, which is broadest in females. This band is bordered outwardly by a slender yellowish line, indistinctly angled at its upper end and bent inward to the costa. There is a dark-brown waved fascia below the apex and the outer margin has a pale line below the apex, as well as some pale speckles at the end of the costa. The hindwings are pale ochreous-brown.[3]
