The rosy grizzled skipper (Pyrgus onopordi) is a species of skipper (family Hesperiidae). It is a species of central and southern Europe. Unlike most European Pyrgus species this skipper can usually be readily identified in the field as it is noticeably paler than its congeners. This is due to a heavy dusting of yellowish scales which overlies the dark brown base colour. The wingspan is 22–28 mm. Two generations are produced each year and adults can be seen at any time between April and August. The larval food plant is Potentilla.
