Panemeria tenebrata (small yellow underwing) is a species of moth of the family Noctuidae. It is found in Europe but is missing in northern Scandinavia, in Portugal, in Central and southern Spain, as well as on most Mediterranean islands, except Sicily. In the East, the range extends to the Ural mountains, but the East distribution limits are still insufficiently known. Occurrence in Asia minor is uncertain, but it is known from Jordan and Israel.
