Perigonia divisa is a moth of the Sphingidae family. It is known from Cuba.[2]
It can be distinguished from all other Perigonia species by the pale grey longitudinal stripe along the upperside of the abdomen. There is a narrow, pale, straight antemedian band and a similar but more oblique postmedian band located on the forewing upperside.
