Udea profundalis
False Celery Leaftier
Udea profundalis is a small crambid moth described by Packard in 1873. It is found in western North America from British Columbia to Texas, with records east of the Rocky Mountains now attributed to the similar species Udea rubigalis. The species is commonly known as the False Celery Leaftier. Adults are deep ochreous-brown with distinctive wing markings including an angulated inner line, round discal dot, and bell-shaped reniform spot on the forewings.
