Scoparia vulpecula is a species of moth in the family Crambidae. It is endemic to New Zealand.
Taxonomy.
This species was described by Edward Meyrick in 1927 from a female specimen collected by George Hudson at Bold Peak at Lake Wakatipu. However the placement of this species within the genus "Scoparia" is in doubt. As a result, this species has also been referred to as "Scoparia" (s.l.) "vulpecula".
Description.
The wingspan is about 18 mm. The forewings are light fuscous with a few scattered whitish scales. The discal spot is cloudy and darker fuscous. The hindwings are whitish-grey, greyer near the termen. Adults have been recorded on wing in January.
