Callionima ramsdeni is a species of moth in the family Sphingidae which is known from Cuba. It was originally described by Benjamin Preston Clark in 1920.[1]
It is similar to Callionima parce and Callionima falcifera falcifera but smaller and with a blunter and less acuminate (pointed) forewing apex. The tegulae are pale brown with a dark brown border, sharply tipped with white posteriorly. The forewing upperside has a patch of indistinct pale brown lunules, merged to form an amorphous patch. There is a sharply marked narrow line extending inward from the apex passing through two conspicuous black spots. The hindwing upperside has a single black band in the anal area, the area between this and the margin is pale.
