Papaipema impecuniosa, also known as the aster borer moth or impecunious borer, is a moth in the family Noctuidae.[1] It is found in eastern North America, where it ranges from Nova Scotia to Georgia, west to Illinois and north to Wisconsin and Ontario.

The wingspan is about 29 mm.[2] Adults resemble Papaipema cataphracta. The forewings are dark yellow with dark reddish speckling up to the postmedial line, purplish-grey between the PM and ST lines, and dark brown beyond the ST line except for a pale apical patch. The reniform spot is orbicular, and there are dark yellow claviform spots. The hindwings are greyish, becoming darker towards the outer margin. There is one generation per year with adults on wing from August to October.

The larvae feed on Aster species and Helenium autumnale. They bore into the stems and roots of their host plant.[3]
