Cryptolectica strigosa

Cryptolectica strigosa is a species of moth in the family Gracillariidae, a group commonly known as leaf-miner moths. The genus Cryptolectica contains species that are typically associated with leaf-mining habits, where larvae feed internally within plant tissues. This species has been documented in 347 iNaturalist observations, indicating it is not uncommon but remains poorly known in terms of detailed biology. Like other gracillariids, it likely has a concealed larval stage and small, inconspicuous adult moths.
