Plutella psammochroa is a moth of the family Plutellidae first described by Edward Meyrick in 1885. [2] [3] It is found in New Zealand. [1] The classification of this moth within the genus Plutella is regarded as unsatisfactory and in need of revision. [1] As such this species is currently also known as Plutella ( s.l.) psammochroa.
