Macrobrochis splendens[1][2] or Paraona splendens[3][4] is a moth of the family Erebidae. It was described by Arthur Gardiner Butler in 1877.[1][2][3][4] It is found in West and South India. The length of the forewing in males is 19.0–25.5 mm (0.75–1.00 in) and 23.0–27.5 mm (0.91–1.08 in) so the size is quite variable.[1]
