Temnora funebris is a moth of the family Sphingidae. It is known from Forests from West Africa to Congo, Uganda, Tanzania and Zimbabwe.

The length of the forewings is 23–29 mm. It is very similar to Temnora marginata, but larger, the wings are longer and narrower and the termen of the forewings is much more oblique and the tornus is less prominent. The foretibia are white and abdominal tufts long and cinnamon brown (paler than the abdomen). The anal tuft is longer and more slender.
