Scoparia astragalota is a species of moth in the family Crambidae. This species is endemic to New Zealand.
Taxonomy.
This species was named by Edward Meyrick in 1884 as "Xeroscopa astragalota". Meyrick gave a description of the species in 1885. Meyrick placed this species within the genus "Scopaira" in 1913. However the placement of this species within "Scoparia" is in doubt. As a result, this species has also been referred to as "Scoparia" (s.l.) "astragalota".
Description.
The wingspan is about 27 mm. The forewings are light ochreous, suffused with white and with black markings, as well as suffused with reddish fuscous. The hindwings are pale whitish-grey, tinged with ochreous. The lunule, postmedian line and apex are greyer. Adults have been recorded on wing in December and January.
