Pantopsalis albipalpis is a species of harvestman in the genus Pantopsalis. It was first described by Reginald Innes Pocock in a paper published in 1902. P. albipalpis cannot be distinguished from P. johnsi but P. johnsi has not been synonymised as these species each have a distinct distribution. The species is known for its long three-segmented chelicerae.
