The costa is rufous to the end of the cell, then darker brown with the streaks below it rufous. The postmedial line is white with some blackish scales before it and defined on the outer side by a red-brown line. The area beyond it is pale rufous, the termen is tinged with purple with a dark red-brown line on it towards the apex, then a series of white striae. The hindwings are pale glaucous, tinged with brown, the costal and inner areas whitish. There is an oblique yellowish-white postmedial band, defined on the outer side by a slightly waved purplish-red line. The terminal area is pale purple and the termen is white with a series of rufous points.^[2]

Ichneutica oliveri is a moth of the family Noctuidae. It is endemic to New Zealand, found only in the South Island. However it has not been observed on the eastern side of that island from mid-Canterbury southwards to Southland. This species is distinctive and is unlikely to be confused with other closely related species. It inhabits tussock grasslands, shrubland as well as granite sand plains, all in the alpine zone. Adults are on the wing from December to March and are attracted to light. They have been observed feeding on the flowers of Hebe species. The life history of this species is unknown as are the larval hosts.

Ichneutica chlorodonta, also known as the Green-toothed Owlet, is a moth of the family Noctuidae. This species is endemic to New Zealand. It is found throughout the North, South and Stewart Islands and is associated with native forest and shrubland. It can be confused with similar looking species such as I. subcyprea however I. chlorodonta can be distinguished through differences in colouration of its fore and hind wings as well as the length of the male pectinations. The life history of this species is unknown as are the host species of its larvae but adults of I. chlorodonta are on the wing from September to April.
