Ametropalpis vidua or (Eugorna vidua) is a moth of the family Erebidae. It is found in West Africa, Gabon and Rwanda.

The classification of this moth is disputed. Poole (1989) treats it as a synonym of Ametropalpis though Lödl (1996) excluded this species from Ametropalpis and Hypeninae and transferred the genus to Catocalinae.
