Aellopos blaini is a moth of the family Sphingidae. It is found in Cuba, Jamaica, Hispaniola and Puerto Rico.[2]

It can be distinguished from all other Aellopos species with an entirely black hindwing upperside by the lack of a transverse white band on abdominal tergite four. The hindwing upperside is entirely black.

The larvae feed on Rubiaceae species.
