Batocera rufomaculata is a species of long-horn beetle in the family Cerambycidae. It was described by Charles De Geer in 1775. It is native to China, India, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, and Thailand, and has been introduced to many other countries, including Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Madagascar, Mauritius, Puerto Rico, Réunion, Syria, and the Virgin Islands.[1]

Larvae bore into the trunks of Ficus carica, Carica papaya, Mangifera indica, and Shorea robusta and range of other plants. In fruit tree cultivation, such as that of mango, they can cause loss of yield and death of the trees. It can be parasitically infected by Avetianella batocerae.
