Tanaobela is a genus of moths in the superfamily Pyraloidea. Its affiliations are disputed.
Historically it was placed in subfamily Pyraustinae of the grass moth family (Crambidae); more recent authors have alternatively assigned it to the tribe Pyralini of subfamily Pyralinae; these belong to the snout moth family (Pyralidae) which used to include the grass moths.
