Buckleria parvulus
Sundew Plume Moth
Buckleria parvulus, commonly known as the sundew plume moth, is a minute plume moth in the family Pterophoridae. First described in 1921 (though some sources cite 1965 for a later reclassification or redescription), it is among the smallest members of its family. The species is notable for its highly specialized larval diet: it feeds exclusively on sundews (Drosera species), making it one of the few insects adapted to consume these carnivorous plants. Its distribution is restricted to the southeastern United States.
