Carpatolechia notatella, the sallow-leaf groundling, is a moth of the family Gelechiidae. It is found in most of Europe (except the Iberian Peninsula and most of the Balkan Peninsula) [1] and Turkey. [2]
The wingspan is 12–16 mm (0.47–0.63 in).The head is whitish, grey sprinkled. Terminal joint of palpi as long as second. Fore wings whitish-grey, brownish-tinged in disc, suffusedly irrorated with dark grey, with a few black scales; darker spots on costa near base and before and beyond middle, and on tornus; a black dot at base of dorsum, and two in disc rather near base stigmata black, first discal beyond plical, preceded by a black dot, another black dot beneath second discal. Hindwings 1, grey. The larva is pale grey-greenish; head black; plate of 2 black posteriorly. [3]
Adults have been recorded on wing from May to June. [4]
The larvae feed on Salix species (including Salix caprea , Salix aurita , Salix petrandra , Salix cinerea , Salix repens and Salix alba ). [5] They feed on the parenchyma on the underside of the leaves. Larvae can be found from August to September.

Scrobipalpa artemisiella is a moth of the family Gelechiidae. It is found in most of Europe, Turkey and Syria through the Caucasus and Central Asia to Irkutsk and Mongolia. It has also been recorded from North America, but this records requires confirmation.
Carpatolechia fugitivella, the elm groundling, is a moth of the family Gelechiidae. It is found in almost all of Europe, Turkey, the Caucasus, Mongolia, southern Siberia, the Russian Far East and Korea. It is also found in Canada, where it has been recorded from Ontario and Quebec. The habitat consists of woodland, parks, gardens and hedgerows.
Exoteleia dodecella, the pine bud moth, is a moth of the family Gelechiidae. It is widely distributed from western Europe to Siberia. It is an introduced species in North America.

It has also been recorded from New Zealand, South Africa and North America, where it is probably an introduced species. The habitat consists of coastal salt marshes and sandy beaches.
Scrobipalpa samadensis, the buck's-horn groundling, is a moth of the family Gelechiidae. It is found in most of Europe and Russia.
Anisoplaca ptyoptera is a species of moth in the family Gelechiidae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1885 and is endemic to New Zealand. This species is found throughout the North and South Islands and prefers habitat where its host plants are common. The larval hosts of this moth are species in the genus Carmichaelia and the larvae stem mine the host plant. However larvae have also been observed feeding on gorse species and as a result their potential as a biological control for gorse has been researched. This behaviour has only been recorded in the Canterbury and Otago regions. A. ptyoptera overwinters as larvae and while in that life stage can be parasitised by species of wasp in the genera Zealachertus and Diadegma. Pupation begins in October. Adult moths are on the wing from October until May with peak emergence occurring in January. The adult moths come in two size classes and should the size of the female be in the larger class fecundity is improved. It is likely that this species has only one brood a year.
Scrobipalpa instabilella, the saltern groundling, is a moth in the family Gelechiidae. It was described by John William Douglas in 1846. It is found in on the Canary Islands, in Algeria, Ireland, Great Britain, Portugal, Spain, France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany, Denmark, Italy, Sardinia, Sicily, Greece, Cyprus and Palestine. It is also present in the United States, where it has been recorded from California.
