Didymana bidens is a moth in the Drepanidae family. It was described by Leech in 1890.[1] It is found in China (Hubei, Sichuan, Yunnan, Shensi, Fujian) and north-eastern Burma.[2]

The wingspan is about 30 mm. The forewings are purplish black, the outer margin bordered with tawny, interrupted by a line and cloud of the ground colour and preceded by a broad whitish band. The hindwings are similar to the forewings, but paler and without the submarginal band.[3]
