Euthictis chloratma is a moth of the family Oecophoridae.[3] It was first described by Edward Meyrick in 1916.[2] This species is endemic to New Zealand.[1] The classification of New Zealand endemic moths within the genus Euthictis is regarded as unsatisfactory and in need of revision.[1] As such this species is currently also known as Euthictis (s.l.) chloratma.[3]
