sedge moths
Diploschizia is a genus of sedge moths in the family Glyphipterigidae. It was established by John B. Heppner in 1981. Most modern taxonomic treatments consider Diploschizia to be a synonym of Glyphipterix. The genus includes approximately twelve described species, such as D. impigritella (Yellow Nutsedge Moth), a tiny moth measuring only 4 mm in length. Species in this group are typically small and associated with sedges or related plants.
