Temnora uluguru is a moth of the Sphingidae family. It is known from Tanzania.
The wingspan is 47–50 mm. It is very similar to Temnora burdoni, but the antennae are thicker, the forewing outer margin is less incised below the apex and the upperside ground colour is more uniformly brown-red. The triangular spot is barely noticeable. The forewing underside is uniformly brick red with some darker marks.
