Eupithecia rindgei is a moth in the family Geometridae. It is found in California.

The wingspan is about 15 mm. The forewings are pale creamy, lightly sprinkled with smoky. There are traces of pale flesh-coloured shadings in the basal and subterminal areas. The hindwings are similar in colour to the forewings, with faint a discal dot and curved postmedian and subterminal smoky cross lines. The terminal area is somewhat darker shaded than the remainder of the wing.[3] Adults have been recorded on wing from May to July.
