Dichocrocis is a genus of moths in the family Crambidae described by Julius Lederer in 1863.
Dichocrocis in its current composition is considered polyphyletic,[2] with many of its species misplaced. However, the type species, D. frenatalis, was found to be placed in the tribe Steniini in a 2025 phylogenetic study.[3]
