( Lepidoptera : Choreutidae ), on Ficus benjamina and F. retusa . Specimens were found inside of leaves folded by Choreutis sp. , and in several cases, a dead, early-instar Choreutis sp. was present. Specimens of K. queenslandica were first collected in May 2002 in Waimanalo, Oahu, however, remained unidentified until an additional collection in 2009. The September 2009 discovery was serendipitous, found while looking for the recent immigrant, Apotomorhinus cribratus ( Coleoptera : Curculionidae ). In December 2010 , T.J. Henry identified the predator as close to the species Kundakimuka queenslandica Cassis. In January 2011 G. Cassis confirmed this identification. K. queenslandica was described from specimens collected from Australia , where it preys on larvae of the moth Neodrepta luteotactella (Walker) ( Lepidoptera : Xyloryctidae ) that infest the paperbark tree, Melaleuca integrifolia .
