Oenoe sp. A. recorded for NZ.
Placement of this unnamed species in the genus Oenoe Chambers as defined by Robinson and Nielsen (1993) has been confirmed by dissection of male and female genitalia of NZ specimens. The female has the highly characteristic signum on the corpus bursae likened by Robinson and Nielsen (1993) to a surgical stitch. In NZ, it comes in small numbers to actinic and mercury vapour light, usually in or near native forest.
