The celebrated work of \textit{M. Kontsevich} [The Gelfand Seminars, 1990--1992. Basel: Birkhäuser, 173--187 (1993; Zbl 0821.58018)] establishes quasi-isomorphism of a certain graph complex (roughly, a complex linearly generated by isomorphism classes of oriented graphs with differential equal to the alternating sum of edge contractions over all edges of a graph), and the Chevalley-Eilenberg complex computing the homology of an infinite-dimensional Lie algebra of symplectic vector fields. Here a super analog of this quasi-isomorphism is given. An important ingredient is invariant theory of Lie superalgebras \(\text{osp}(m|2n)\) due to \textit{A. Sergeev} [Mich. Math. J. 49, No. 1, 113--146, 147--168 (2001; Zbl 1002.17002)].
