Niveaphasma annulata is a species of stick insect found in New Zealand. [1]
It is the sole member of the genus Niveaphasma which is unique among stick insects because it can be found living in alpine areas. [2]
Niveaphasma annulata is restricted to the southern half of the South Island. It is absent from the North Island and has not been observed north of Arthur's Pass. [2]
