Temnora zantus is a moth of the Sphingidae family. It is known from forests in Congo and Uganda.[2]
It is superficially similar to Temnora atrofasciata, but the forewing outer margin is crenulated and the forewing upperside has a pale apical area separated from the dark brown median area by a distinct narrow white line and beyond which is a line of dark brown spots. The forewing inner margin is deeply concave before the tornus. The abdominal tergites have a white dot on the lower edges. The abdominal sternites have two rows of blackish spots.
