Hydropionea is a genus of moths of the family Crambidae. The 13 described species are distributed in Central and South America.[1]

The genus was formerly treated in Spilomelinae,[1] but it is now placed in Glaphyriinae.[2]

The larvae are found to feed on Capparis uniflora (Capparaceae),[3] which fits with the general feeding habit of the subfamily Glaphyriinae of feeding on Brassicales.[4]
