Agnoea subochreella, the Straw-coloured Tubic, is a species of gelechioid moth in the family Lypusidae. [1] [2] [3]
This species was formerly in the genus Pseudatemelia.
Here, this species is placed within the subfamily Lypusinae of the moth family Lypusidae. [4] [1]
Recent research has shown that the genus Pseudatemelia is one of those close to Lypusa , the type of the family Lypusidae. [5] The genus Pseudatemelia has been dissolved, and the species previously assigned to it transferred to the genus Agnoea. Consequently, Pseudatemelia subochreella has been assigned to the genus Agnoea, Lypusidae family, Gelechioidea superfamily. [6] [7] [3] [1] [2]
This species is present in Europe, where it inhabits woodlands. At the periphery of its European range, it is not common; in the UK for example it is only found locally in southern England. It can also be found in the Near East and in North Africa. [1]
Agnoea subochreella has a wingspan of about 17–20 mm. [8] This moth is not conspicuously colored, even by the standards of its rather drab genus, being a ruddy ochraceous brown overall (hence the name subochreella), or more yellow-grey with darker hindwings. All wings are unmarked. [9] [7]
The adults fly from May to July depending on the location; they are mainly nocturnal but are sometimes encountered flying around during the day. Its caterpillars live inside a self-made case built from a folded piece of leaf, that is often attached to tree trunks or stones. [8] They eat dead and decaying leaves and similar plant remains, and probably also rotting wood. [9] [10]
Gelechioidea is the superfamily of moths that contains the case-bearers, twirler moths, and relatives, also simply called curved-horn moths or gelechioid moths. It is a large and poorly understood '"micromoth" superfamily, constituting one of the basal lineages of the Ditrysia.
Agnoea josephinae, the orange-headed tubic, is a species of moth in the family Lypusidae. It is found in Europe.
Agnoea flavifrontella is a species of gelechioid moths in the family Lypusidae.
The Amphisbatinae was a small subfamily of moths in the superfamily Gelechioidea. Like their relatives therein, their exact relationships are not yet very well resolved. The present lineage is often included in the Depressariinae as a tribe Amphisbatini, though more often within the context of a "splitting" approach to Gelechioidea systematics and taxonomy, wherein the Depressariinae are elevated to full family rank and the Amphisbatinae are treated as a subfamily therein. An even more extremely split-up layout even treats the Amphisbatinae as full family Amphisbatidae. In the scheme used here, the Amphisbatinae are included in the Oecophoridae as a subfamily alongside the Depressariinae.
