Latin
Tinea pellionella
Stats
Body length 3.5 and 4 mm.
Wingspan 10 – 15 mm.
Appearance
The upper side of the forewings is pale brown with three darker spots on the wings. Both pairs of wings have fringed margins. The larva has the habit of carrying a silken tube and often attached to it are particles of wool, fibres, etc from the immediate habitat. The case is open at both ends and the larva is rarely found outside it.
Latin
Plodia interpunctella
Stats
Open wing span – approx. 16 mm
Appearance
The forewing has a broad grey band across the bronze brown wings. In common with other moth species, wing scales are readily lost and wing pattern is therefore an unreliable characteristic for identification.
