Proteoteras obnigrana
Proteoteras obnigrana is a small moth in the family Tortricidae, first described by Heinrich in 1923. It belongs to the genus Proteoteras, which includes species commonly known as maple twig borer moths due to their larval association with maple trees. The species is part of the subfamily Olethreutinae and tribe Eucosmini. Limited published information exists on this specific species, though its congeners are documented as twig-boring pests of maples.
