Syagrus calcaratus is a species of leaf beetle widely distributed across sub-Saharan Africa. It was first described by Johan Christian Fabricius in 1775, in his major work Systema entomologiae.
Syagrus calcaratus is a pest of cotton. The larvae attack the roots of the plant and cause it to wilt. Other host plants for the species include Parinari curatellifolia.
