Pisinidea exsuperans is a moth in the Depressariidae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1920. It is found in South Africa.[1][2]

The wingspan is about 18 mm. The forewings are fuscous finely and suffusedly irrorated with whitish, with a few scattered dark fuscous scales and an obscure streak of pale ochreous suffusion along the fold. There is a small dark fuscous spot beneath the costa near the base, and two others representing the discal stigmata, these three connected by white suffusion. There is also a series of dark fuscous linear dots around the posterior part of the costa and termen. The hind wings are grey.[3]
