Battra (バトラ Batora) is a fictional giant black moth appearing in Godzilla vs. Mothra
. He has a wingspan of 180m and weighs 30,000 tons. Like Mothra, Battra has both larval and imago (adult) forms.

Battra was created by Earth's life force millions of years ago to destroy the human race, but Mothra, defender of humankind, fought a fierce battle with Battra and emerged victorious.

Millions of years later, Battra was awoken by a meteorite. Upon metamorphosing from his larval form, he flew to Tokyo to exact his revenge on Mothra. In the heat of the battle, Godzilla appeared. Mothra and Battra temporarily teamed up to combat Godzilla together in defense of both Earth and humankind. Once Godzilla was defeated, Battra and Mothra carried him out to sea. However, Godzilla, still conscious, killed Battra while he was being transported.

In both larval and adult forms, Battra is a formidable opponent. As a larva, Battra is unable to control the rays that it fires from its eyes and horn, the latter also effective as a battering ram. As an adult, Battra can focus its eye rays toward its opponent, making it a force to be reckoned with.
