Leptocroca amenena is a moth of the family Oecophoridae first described by Edward Meyrick in 1888.[2][1] It is endemic to New Zealand.[3] The classification of this moth within the genus Leptocroca is regarded as unsatisfactory and in need of revision.[4] As such this species is currently also known as Leptocroca (s.l.) amenena.
