Olethreutes exoletum
wretched olethreutes moth
Olethreutes exoletum is a small tortricid moth commonly known as the wretched olethreutes moth. It is one of numerous Olethreutes species found in North America, distinguished by its modest size and membership in a taxonomically complex genus. The species was described by Zeller in 1875 and holds Hodges number 2791 in the North American moth classification system. Like many Olethreutinae, it is likely associated with woody plants, though specific host relationships remain poorly documented.
