Strepsicrates sideritis is a species of moth in the family Tortricidae first described by Edward Meyrick in 1905.[2][1] This species is endemic to New Zealand.[3] The classification of this moth within the genus Strepsicrates is regarded as unsatisfactory and in need of revision.[3] As such this species is currently also known as Strepsicrates (s.l.) sideritis.[2]
