Xylophanes depuiseti is a moth of the family Sphingidae. It is known from Brazil and is probably also present in Paraguay.^[2]

It is similar to Xylophanes adalia and Xylophanes ploetzi. The upperside is olive green. The abdomen has two rows of feeble brown dots dorsally. Each side has a row of pale, golden apical dots.

There are at least two to three generations per year.

The larvae probably feed on Rubiaceae and Malvaceae species.
