Scoparia lychnophanes is a species of moth in the family Crambidae. It is endemic to New Zealand.
Taxonomy.
It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1927. 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.) "lychnophanes".
Description.
The wingspan is about 22 mm. The forewings are dark fuscous with some scattered whitish and ochreous scales. The first and second lines are indicated by shades of scattered white-scales. The hindwings are grey, somewhat darker posteriorly. Adults have been recorded on wing in January.
