Eudonia bisinualis is a species of moth in the family Crambidae. [1] It was described by George Vernon Hudson in 1928. [2] [3] This species is endemic to New Zealand. [4]

E. bisinualis has a well marked discal forewing streak and as such has been treated as a separate species. However it has been argued that as this wing patternation is variable, and that this species is outwardly identical in appearance to Eudonia cymatias , and finally that the male genitalia of both these species is identical, they should be regarded as the same species. [5]

Adults are on wing from October to May.
