Digitivalva heringi is a moth of the family Glyphipterigidae. [2] [3] [4] Some sources consider it a synonym of Digitivalva eglanteriella . [5] It is found in the Republic of Macedonia (type locality: Matka Canyon [1] ), Croatia, [2] [3] Bulgaria, and Greece. [2] It is named for Erich Martin Hering. [1]
The wingspan is 11–12 mm (0.43–0.47 in). [1] The larvae feed on Pentanema aschersonianum (Asteraceae; formerly Inula aschersoniana). They mine the leaves of their host plant. They can be found at the end of May. [1] [4]
