Orocrambus corruptus is a moth in the family Crambidae. [1] It was described by Arthur Gardiner Butler in 1877. [2] [3] It is endemic to New Zealand. [4] It is known from the lowland and intermontane region areas of eastern and central South Island. [5] The habitat consists of poorly drained areas up to 750 meters and old pastures. [5]
The wingspan is 15–20 mm. Adults have been recorded on wing from September to early December and again in February in some areas. [5]
The larvae have been reared on Funaria species, Poa annua, Bromus dactylis and Trifolium repens. [6]
