Lomographa bimaculata, the white-pinion spotted, is a species of geometer moth (family Geometridae). It belongs to the large geometer moth subfamily Ennominae, and therein to the tribe Baptini. It is under its junior synonym the type species of its genus Lomographa. It is also (under its original name Phalaena bimaculata) the type species of Bapta, a junior objective synonym of Lomographa and the namesake of the Baptini. The species was first described by Johan Christian Fabricius ion 1775.

Two subspecies have been named, as well as several forms (e.g. bipunctata):

  • Lomographa bimaculata bimaculata (Fabricius, 1775)
  • Lomographa bimaculata subnotata (Warren, 1895)
