Scoparia chalicodes is a species of moth in the family Crambidae.[3] This species was named by Edward Meyrick in 1884.[4][2] Meyrick gave a fuller description of this species in 1885.[5] S. chalicodes is endemic to New Zealand.[1]
The wingspan is 15.5–16.5 mm. The forewings are light ochreous-grey, irrorated with white. The veins are irregularly and partially lined with blackish. The first line is pale greyish-ochreous, obscurely dark-margined. The second line is very obscure and the subterminal line is cloudy and whitish. The hindwings are grey-whitish. Adults have been recorded on wing from January to March.[5]
