Tmetolophota alopa is a moth of the family Noctuidae.[1] It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1887 from specimens collected near Lake Coleridge and Lake Guyon in Canterbury in March.[2] It is endemic to New Zealand.[1] In 2019 Robert J. B. Hoare undertook a major review of New Zealand noctuids. Hoare, having inspected the holotype specimen of this species, placed it within the genus Ichneutica.[3]
