Euzophera pinguis, the tabby knot-horn, is a moth of the family Pyralidae. It was described by Adrian Hardy Haworth in 1811 and is found in Europe.
The wingspan is 23–28 mm. The forewings are light brownish-ochreous, somewhat reddish-tinged, pale sprinkled, with a few blackish scales; lines hardly paler, first rather curved, edged anteriorly by a broad blackish band, posteriorly by a thick blackish suffusion, second angulated in middle, strongly edged with dark fuscous ; terminal area more infuscated. Hindwings light fuscous. The larva is pinkish ochreous ; dorsal line darker, interrupted ; a lateral spot on 3 and 12 ringed with reddish-brown ; head and plate of 2 reddish-brown, blackish-marked: in bark of ash; 9-6, perhaps sometimes living two years.

The moths are on wing from July to August depending on the location.
The larvae feed on Fraxinus excelsior .

Larva dull greenish-yellow dorsal and broader subdorsal lines dull purple; spiracular interrupted, double, dull purple; head brown: in flower-heads of Carduus
Pyla fusca is a snout moth of the subfamily Phycitinae and inhabits the Holarctic. It is distinct from the other species of the genus Pyla, which are only found in North America, and has been proposed for separation in a monotypic genus Matilella. Considering the insufficient knowledge of Phycitinae, this may be warranted, and eventually relatives of this specimens might be discovered in the Old World, or it might turn out to be a cryptic species complex. On the other hand, its separation might render Pyla paraphyletic, in which case it would not be warranted. More research is required to resolve this question.

They have an oligophagous diet primarily feeding on plants from the Rosaceae family including the black chokeberry. They cause significant damage to organic chokeberry farming, due to their widespread impact on the quality and quantity of the black chokeberry plants.
