Clara is a monotypic moth genus of the family Erebidae. Its only species, Clara monsalvei, is found in Chile. Both the genus and the species were first described by Victor Hugo Ruiz-Rodriguez in 1989.[1]

Other sources give this name as either a species group of Hadena Schrank, 1802[2] or a subgenus of Jochroa Felder, 1874.[3]
