Ennomos quercaria, the clouded August thorn, is a moth of the Geometridae family. It is mostly found in southern Europe. There are two dubious records from Britain, one in the 19th century, then again in south-east England in 1992.
The wingspan is 28–35 mm. Adults are on wing from June to September.
The larvae feed on various Quercus species.
