Hagnagora acothysta is a species of moth of the family Geometridae. It is found in Brazil.
Unlike related species Hagnagora mortipax and Hagnagora jamaicensis, this species shows no white transversal band on the forewing, but rather a reduced blotch that reaches only about half of the size observed in mortipax.[1]
