First record: 1 ♂, HB: Napier, near port, 30 Dec 2010, light trapping, B.H. Patrick & family (NZAC; genitalia on slide NZAC Oec. 676). Subsequently 4, HB: near research house at Cape Kidnappers Sanctuary, 7 Jan 2011, B.H. Patrick (Gerard 2013) (BPNZ). Since this species was found in two well-separated locations near Napier and several specimens were taken, it is presumed to be established, although not sought since the original captures in 2010-2011. It might have been imported accidentally to the port of Napier and spread from there.
