Tinea conspecta

Tinea conspecta is a species of moth in the family Tineidae.[2] It was described by Alfred Philpott in 1931.[3][4] However the placement of this species within the Tinea genus is in doubt.[1] As a result, this species has been referred to as Tinea (s.l.) conspecta.[2] This species is endemic to New Zealand.[1]
