Scopifera antorides is a species of moth in the family Erebidae. It was described by Herbert Druce in 1891.[1] It is found in Guatemala, Costa Rica and in Mexico in Durango and Xalapa.[2]

The forewings are dark brown, crossed from the costal to the inner margin by three waved brown lines. There is a minute dot in the cell and a short pale yellowish-brown streak at the end of it. The hindwings are uniform dark brown, crossed below the middle by two fainter brown lines.[3]
