Dwarf Magpie Moth
Dwarf Magpie Moth.
I believe this moth inhabits only the Auckland district, as I have never met with it anywhere else. The markings on its wings very closely resemble those of Nyctmera annulata, but the bands on the body are white instead of yellow. The antennæ; are not feathered. Frequents grass and flowerbeds. Appears in February.
