Scopula mollicula is a moth of the family Geometridae. It is found on Madagascar.[2]

This species resembles Scopula caducaria (Swinhoe, 1904) in size, shape, and coloration, although it is less glossy. Both wings feature a prominent cell dot, and the median and postmedian lines on the forewings are positioned more distally compared to those in S.caducaria.[3]
