Hagnagora marionae is a species of moth of the family Geometridae. It has been collected only at two high mountain areas in Costa Rica at elevations above 2,500 meters.

The species resembles the other species of the H. anicata clade, but is easily distinguished by large orange-yellow blotches on the forewings.[1]
