Eulechria zophoessa Meyrick, 1883

Eulechria zophoessa is a moth of the family Oecophoridae. It was first described by Edward Meyrick in 1883. This species is endemic to New Zealand. The classification of New Zealand endemic moths within the genus Eulechria is regarded as unsatisfactory and in need of revision. As such this species is currently also known as Eulechria (s.l.) zophoessa.
