Utetheisa pectinata is a moth of the Arctiidae family. It is found on the islands of Arafura Sea (Moa, Dammer, Tiandoe and Tam, Tenimber, Little Key) and in Australia (where it is only known from the coastal strip of the Northern Territory).[2]
The subspecies Utetheisa pectinata ruberrima is now considered a synonym of Utetheisa salomonis.
