Porphyrosela hardenbergiella is a moth of the family Gracillariidae. It is known from New Zealand,[1] but may be adventive, since the host plant is Australian. The colony known to Wise has been destroyed since its discovery.[2]
The larvae feed on Hardenbergia species. They mine the leaves of their host plant.
