Taxonomy and etymology


This species was first described by Robert R. J. Hoare in 2005.[2] The species was first discovered by C. R. Thomas in January 1953.[2] The holotype specimen was collected at Titirangi by P. A. Maddison on 28 January 1980.[2] The holotype specimen is held at the New Zealand Arthropod Collection.[2] Prior to its formal scientific description this species was referred to as Coridomorpha 'long palpi'.[2] The epithet is in honour the extinct bird species, the huia, as well as the type locality of Huia Road, Titirangi.[2]



Description


H. huia can be identified by the minute segment 3 of the labial palp, the white subapical patch on the antenna and the metallic patches of curled scales on the forewing.[2] These features are all unique to this species.[2] This species is also sexually dimorphic with the female of the species having much longer labial palpi than the male.[2]



Distribution


This species is endemic to New Zealand.[1][3] It is only known from two sites in Titirangi that are approximately 1 to 2km apart.[4]



Biology and behaviour


Little is known of the biology of this species.[2] Larvae have yet to be discovered.[2] This species is on the wing in January.[2] Although the adult moths are attracted to light it has been hypothesised that they are a diurnal species on the basis of their behaviour when light trapped.[2]



Host species and habitat


The host species for the larvae of this moth is currently unknown.[2] Both sites where this species has been found are close to forest habitat.[5]H. huia is suspected to be a forest canopy-dweller.[2]



Conservation Status


This species has been classified as having the "Data Deficient" conservation status under the New Zealand Threat Classification System.[6]
