Pediasia luteella is a species of moth in the family Crambidae. It was described by Michael Denis and Ignaz Schiffermüller in 1775.

In the east, the range extends to Central Asia, the northern Caucasus, Transcaucasia, southern Siberia and Mongolia.

Adults are on wing from the end of May to mid-July in one generation per year.

The larvae feed on Festuca ovina and Poa species.
