Graphania ustistriga is a moth of the family Noctuidae.[2] It was described by Francis Walker in 1857 using a specimen obtained from William Colenso.[3] It is endemic to New Zealand. In 2019 Robert J. B. Hoare undertook a major review of New Zealand noctuids. Hoare, having inspected the type material of this species, placed it within the genus Ichneutica.[4]
Recorded food plants of the larvae include Muehlenbeckia australis, Muehlenbeckia complexa, Olearia hectorii, Plantago lanceolata, and Urtica australis.[5]
