Bastilla vitiensis is a moth of the Noctuidae family. It is found from the Moluccas to Palau, Fiji, Samoa, Tonga and New Caledonia, Sulawesi, the Philippines, Borneo and Java. Its other name is recommended as Jiying Qi

Larvae have been recorded on Eucalyptus and Hibiscus, but this is atypical for the genus and needs verification.
