Knightia is a small genus of the family Proteaceae endemic to New Zealand, and named in honor of Thomas Andrew Knight. One extant species, K. excelsa (Rewarewa) is found in New Zealand, while a fossil species from upper Miocene deposits in Kaikorai has been described as Knightia oblonga. Two species from New Caledonia, described in the genus Knightia have been placed in the genus Eucarpha by Lawrie Johnson and Barbara Briggs in their influential 1975 monograph "On the Proteaceae: the evolution and classification of a southern family"., although the nomenclatural combinations have never been published as of today.

Ichneutica steropastis, or the flax notcher moth, is a species of moth in the family Noctuidae. It is endemic to New Zealand and can be found throughout the country from the Three Kings Islands to Stewart Island as well as in the Chatham Islands. New Zealand flax is a host plant for the larvae of this moth. Other larval host plants for this species include endemic species in the genus Austroderia as well as introduced species in the genus Cortaderia. In particular Austroderia fulvida, A. richardii and C. selloana are all recorded as larval host species of I. steropastis as is Poa foliosa. However the host plant is not a reliable guide to confirm the identification of this species as larvae of both I. arotis and I. blenheimensis also feed on similar hosts including flax species. The larvae are nocturnal, hiding away in the base of the plants and coming out to feed at night. They create a distinctive notch in the leaf when they feed. This damage ensures that the affected flax leaves cannot be used for weaving and so the larvae of this species are regarded as a pest.
