Aglaope Infausta
''Aglaope infausta'', or almond-tree leaf skeletonizer moth, is a moth of the family Zygaenidae. Description The wings are gray with some red towards the base. The thorax is black and is crossed with a red band. The wingspan is about . The caterpillar can retract its head into its prothorax. A yellow band with black spots runs along the caterpillar's dorsum. The pupation usually starts in early June as an elongated cocoon that is whitish or light brown. The pupa is pink or yellowish and is long. The larvae feed upon '' Prunus spinosa'', ''Crataegus'' sp., ''Cotoneaster'' sp., and other species in the family Rosaceae.

In the Ice Age, differentiation into two genetic lineages occurred. Mating The external male sex organs are subject to sexual selection by the female. The male may rub the f ...

Choreutis Nemorana
''Choreutis nemorana'', the fig-tree skeletonizer moth or fig leaf roller, is a species of moth of the family Choreutidae. Description ''Choreutis nemorana'' has a wingspan of 16–20 mm. The basic color of the forewings varies from reddish brown to ocher brown, with whitish markings. The hindwings are brownish, with two pale brown dots on the edge. Adults overwinter and appear in early spring. The larvae feed on fig leaves. They are protected by a web of silken threads. Adults of the summer generation emerge in July. The second generation emerges in autumn and hibernate. The species is considered a minor pest, causing distortion of the leaves and discoloration, scarring and tattering.

Harrisina Americana
The grapeleaf skeletonizer (''Harrisina americana'') is a moth in the family Zygaenidae.
