Kentrochrysalis streckeri is a species of moth of the family Sphingidae. It is known from Mongolia, the Russian Far East, north-eastern China and North Korea.[2]

The wingspan is 88–90 mm. In Khabarovsk in Russia there is one full generation with adults on wing from May to July, with a partial second generation in August in some years.

The larvae have been recorded feeding on Fraxinus (including Fraxinus mandshurica), Ligustrum and Syringa species in Primorskiy Kray.
