''Hemiscopis sanguinea'' is a moth in the Crambidae family. It was described by Bänziger in 1987. It is found in Thailand. The wingspan 15.5–17.5 mm. The forewings are dark red with a metallic shine, but darker toward the outer margin, where it is suffused with grey. The hindwings have a similar coloration, except the basal one-third to two-third which is whitish. Adult males are zoophilous and have been observed sucking perspiration from human skin and imbibing lachrymation from below an elephant's eye and elephant skin secretions smeared onto the vegetation. ==Etymology== The species name refers to both to its red coloration as well as to one of the moth's feeding habits, i.e. to imbibe blood.〔(Description of new moths which settle on man and animals in S. E. Asia (genera Thliptoceras, Hemiscopis, Toxobotys, Pyralidae, Lepid.) )〕
