Batocnema coquerelii

Batocnema coquerelii is a moth of the family Sphingidae. It is known from Madagascar, the Aldabra Islands and the Comoro Islands.

It is similar to Batocnema africanus, but the general pattern comprises a much better developed series of bands and patches. The forewing upperside has six, rather than two, conspicuous costal patches and stripes, the most apical of which is small, triangular and subapical.
