Eucosma hohenwartiana, the bright bell, is a species of moth of the family Tortricidae. It is found in China (Heilongjiang, jiangxi), Central Asia, North Africa [2] and Europe, where it has been recorded from Sardinia, Sicily, Ireland, Great Britain, Spain, France, Germany, the Benelux, Denmark, Austria, Switzerland, Italy, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Slovenia, Hungary, Poland, Romania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Norway, Sweden, Finland, the Baltic region and Russia. [3] The habitat consists of dry open areas and grassland. [4]

The wingspan is 15–22 mm. Adults are highly variable in both size and wing pattern. The forewings are usually dark brown with contrasting markings. [5] It is very similar to Eucosma cana

The larvae feed on Centaurea cyanus , Centaurea scabiosa , Centaurea jacea , Serratula tinctoria , Carduus , Cirsium and Picris species. They feed on the flowers and developing seeds of their host plant. The larvae have a pinkish-ochreous to pink body and a pale to mid-brown head. The species overwinters in the larval stage amongst detritus on the ground.

Crocidosema plebejana, the cotton tipworm, is a tortrix moth, belonging to tribe Eucosmini of subfamily Olethreutinae. It is found today all over the subtropical and tropical regions of the world and even occurs on many oceanic islands – in Polynesia and Saint Helena for example – but has probably been accidentally introduced to much of its current range by humans. In addition, it is also found in some cooler regions, e.g. in Europe except in the east and north; this is probably also not natural, as it was, for example, not recorded in the British Isles before 1900.
