Eucosma browni
Eucosma browni is a species of tortricid moth described by Wright in 2010. It belongs to the genus Eucosma, a diverse group of small moths commonly known as phaneta moths or eucosma moths. The species is classified within the subfamily Olethreutinae and tribe Eucosmini. As a recently described species, detailed biological information remains limited.
Eucosma canusana
Eucosma canusana is a small moth in the family Tortricidae, first described by Wright in 1997. As a member of the Olethreutinae subfamily, it belongs to a diverse group of tortrix moths commonly known as leafroller moths. The species is placed in the genus Eucosma, a large and taxonomically complex group within the tribe Eucosmini. Very little specific biological information has been published for this species.
Eucosma gemellana
Eucosma gemellana is a small tortricid moth described by Heinrich in 1923. The species belongs to the large genus Eucosma, which contains numerous seed-feeding tortricids associated with Asteraceae and related plant families. This species is rarely encountered and poorly documented in the scientific literature, with only a handful of observations recorded.
Eucosma indagatricana
Eucosma indagatricana is a species of tortricid moth described by Heinrich in 1923. It belongs to the subfamily Olethreutinae, a group commonly known as olethreutine moths. The species is part of the large genus Eucosma, which contains numerous small moths often associated with Asteraceae and other plant families. Limited published information exists regarding its biology and ecology.
Eucosma kiscana
Eucosma kiscana is a small moth species in the family Tortricidae, first described by Kearfott in 1907 under the basionym Thiodia kiscana. It belongs to the large genus Eucosma, a group of tortricid moths commonly known as phaneta or eucosma moths. The species has been documented in the northeastern United States, with confirmed records from Vermont. Like many Eucosma species, it is likely associated with herbaceous or woody plants, though specific biological details remain poorly documented.
Eucosma knudsoni
Eucosma knudsoni is a species of tortricid moth described from Texas in 2015. It belongs to a large genus of small moths commonly known as bell moths or eucosmas, many of which are associated with Asteraceae host plants. The species is known from very few observations, reflecting both its recent description and likely restricted distribution or cryptic habits. As a member of the Olethreutinae subfamily, it possesses the characteristic tortricid resting posture with wings held rooflike over the body.
Eucosma modernana
Eucosma modernana is a species of tortricid moth in the family Tortricidae, subfamily Olethreutinae. It was described by James Halliday McDunnough in 1925. The genus Eucosma comprises numerous small to medium-sized moths, many of which are associated with Asteraceae host plants. Specific ecological details for E. modernana remain poorly documented.
Eucosma monogrammana
Eucosma monogrammana is a species of tortricid moth in the subfamily Olethreutinae. It was described by Zeller in 1875. The species belongs to the large genus Eucosma, which comprises numerous small moths often associated with coniferous and deciduous trees. Specific biological details for this species remain poorly documented in published literature.
Eucosma ochrocephala
Pale-headed Eucosma Moth
Eucosma ochrocephala is a species of tortricid moth in the family Tortricidae, subfamily Olethreutinae. The species was first described by Walsingham in 1895 under the basionym Semasia ochrocephala. It is part of the diverse genus Eucosma, which contains numerous small moth species, many of which are associated with Asteraceae host plants. The species is recognized in major taxonomic databases including Catalogue of Life, GBIF, and NCBI Taxonomy.
Eucosma pallidarcis
Eucosma pallidarcis is a small tortricid moth described by Heinrich in 1923. As a member of the genus Eucosma, it belongs to a diverse group of moths commonly known as bell moths or shoot moths. The species is documented in North America, with observations primarily from the United States. Like other Eucosma species, adults are nocturnal and attracted to light. Larval biology remains poorly documented for this particular species.
Eucosma patagoniana
Eucosma patagoniana is a species of tortricid moth described by Wright in 2014. The species epithet refers to Patagonia, the region of southern Argentina and Chile where the type specimens were collected. As a member of the large genus Eucosma, it belongs to a group of small moths commonly known as phaneta moths or tortricid leafrollers. The species is known from a limited number of observations, reflecting the generally understudied nature of Neotropical tortricid diversity.
Eucosma tenuiana
Eucosma tenuiana is a species of tortricid moth in the subfamily Olethreutinae, described by Walsingham in 1879. It belongs to the large genus Eucosma, which contains numerous small moths often associated with composite plants. The species is rarely encountered, with only 8 observations recorded on iNaturalist, suggesting it is either genuinely uncommon or underreported.
