Borocera cajani, also known as landibe in Malagasy, is a species of silk-producing lasiocampid moth endemic to Madagascar. It is often confused with the similar Borocera madagascariensis, which has the same Malagasy name. However, B. cajani is the species associated with silk production in highland Madagascar, while B. madagascariensis is found in the coastal portion of the island. Landibe moths are distributed throughout the highland tapia forests of inland Madagascar, including the zones of and , Isalo National Park, and the . It flies all year within the tapia forest.

B. cajani produces a form of wild silk which has been harvested by the indigenous Malagasy people of the Madagascar highlands for hundreds of years. Silk production and weaving take place in different communities. A local center for the production of landibe silk is the central Madagascar town of Sahatsiho Ambohimanjaka. Wild landibe silk is thicker than that of the common silkworm Bombyx mori.
