D. fulminea was first described by Alfred Philpott in 1915 using a male specimen collected by George Howes on Bold Peak in Otago in February. George Hudson discussed and illustrated this species in his 1928 book The butterflies and moths of New Zealand. The holotype specimen is held at Te Papa. Description 

Philpott originally described this species as follows:
This species is similar in appearance to Dasyuris callicrena but can be distinguished as the lines on the forewings differ between the two species and the cilia of D. fulminea are only of one colour unlike those of D. callicrena. Distribution 
This species is endemic to New Zealand. Along with the type locality of Bold Peak, this species has also been observed in Fiordland as well as in the mountains in the West Coast. Behaviour 
The adults of this species are day flying moths and are on the wing from December to February. References
