Graphania pagaia
Graphania pagaia is a moth of the family Noctuidae.[2] It was described by George Hudson in 1909 from a specimen collected by Dr. Benham on the Snares Islands during the 1907 Sub-Antarctic Islands Scientific Expedition.[3] It is found in New Zealand.[2] In 2019 Robert J. B. Hoare published a paper in which he undertook a major review of New Zealand noctuids. Hoare, having inspected the holotype specimen of this species, placed it within the genus Ichneutica.[4]
