Gypsonoma dealbana, the common cloaked shoot, [2] is a moth of the family Tortricidae.
The wingspan is 11–14 mm. These moths have a creamy-white patch on the front of the head. [3] Gypsonoma dealbana is the most variable of the species in the genus Gypsonoma in general coloration and clarity of the forewing markings. The white ground color can be overlaid by a plumbeous or brownish grey suffusion with markings less distinct and often partially obscured. [4] [5]
Adults are on wing from July to August. [3] The larvae feed on a various deciduous trees, including Salix , Populus , Crataegus , Quercus and Corylus species. They window feed on the leaves in autumn and eat the buds, catkins, young shoots and then spun leaves in the spring. [3] Pupation takes place in a cocoon in the larval habitation or in the soil.
This species can be found in most of Europe. It is also found in the Near East and the eastern part of the Palearctic realm. [6] These moths live in well wooded areas. [2]
Manduca quinquemaculata, the five-spotted hawkmoth, is a brown and gray hawk moth of the family Sphingidae. The caterpillar, often referred to as the tomato hornworm, can be a major pest in gardens; they get their name from a dark projection on their posterior end and their use of tomatoes as host plants. Tomato hornworms are closely related to the tobacco hornworm Manduca sexta. This confusion arises because caterpillars of both species have similar morphologies and feed on the foliage of various plants from the family Solanaceae, so either species can be found on tobacco or tomato leaves. Because of this, the plant on which the caterpillar is found does not indicate its species.
Yponomeuta plumbella is a moth from the family Yponomeutidae, the ermine moths.
Spodoptera littoralis, also referred to as the African cotton leafworm or Egyptian cotton leafworm or Mediterranean brocade, is a species of moth in the family Noctuidae. S. littoralis is found widely in Africa, Mediterranean Europe and Middle Eastern countries. It is a highly polyphagous organism that is a pest of many cultivated plants and crops. As a result, this species was assigned the label of A2 quarantine pest by the EPPO and was cautioned as a highly invasive species in the United States. The devastating impacts caused by these pests have led to the development of both biological and chemical control methods. This moth is often confused with Spodoptera litura.
Dioryctria sylvestrella, the new pine knot-horn or maritime pine borer, is a moth of the family Pyralidae. It is found in Europe, parts of Asia and North Africa. The adult is a small mottled brown and white insect with a wingspan of 28 to 35 mm. The moth flies in a single generation from June to October and is a pest of maritime pine and several other species of pine, on which the caterpillars feed.
Endotricha flammealis, the rose-flounced tabby, is a species of snout moth, family Pyralidae.
Argyresthia goedartella, the bronze alder moth, is a species of moth of the family Argyresthiidae.
Phragmataecia castaneae, the reed leopard or giant borer, is a moth of the family Cossidae. It was described by Jacob Hübner in 1790. It is found in central and southern Europe, the Middle East, the Caucasus, Transcaucasia, Turkmenistan, Kazakhstan, north-western Iran, Iraq, Syria, Sri Lanka, Madagascar, India, Lebanon, Turkey, western China, south-western Siberia, Egypt, Tunisia and Morocco.
Gypsonoma is a genus of moths belonging to the subfamily Olethreutinae of the family Tortricidae.
Epinotia cruciana, the willow tortrix, is a moth of the family Tortricidae.
Gypsonoma aceriana, the poplar shoot-borer, is a moth of the family Tortricidae. It is found from Europe to Russia, eastern Turkey and Iraq. It is also present in North Africa.
Gypsonoma minutana, the poplar tortricid, is a moth of the family Tortricidae. It is found in Europe and North Africa, Turkey, Transcaucasia, Ural, Kazakhstan, from central Asia to Siberia and eastern Russia, Asia Minor, Iran, Afghanistan, Mongolia, China and Japan.
Archips cerasivorana, the ugly-nest caterpillar moth, is a species of moth of the family Tortricidae. The caterpillars of this species are known to create nests by tying the leaves of their host plant together. Within the nests, they live and feed off the leaves that have been tied together. The larvae are brownish or greenish yellow with a shiny dark brown head. Larvae can be found from May to July. The species overwinters as an egg, and pupation takes place within the nest. Caterpillars are seen to follow one another in trails, a behavior prompted by the release of signaling pheromones from their spinnerets.
Parastichtis suspecta, the suspected, is a species of moth in the family Noctuidae. It is found from most of Europe through Russia and east through the Palearctic to Japan. It is also found in North America.
Heliopetes laviana, the Laviana white-skipper or Laviana skipper, is a butterfly in the family Hesperiidae. It is found from Argentina through Central America and northern Mexico to southern Texas. Strays can be found in southern Arizona and central and northern Texas. The habitat consists of edges of brushy areas, trails, roadsides, open woodland, thorn forest and streamsides.
Caryocolum leucomelanella is a moth of the family Gelechiidae. It is found in most of Europe, except Ireland, Great Britain, the Benelux, Portugal, Fennoscandia and the Baltic region. It is also found in Russia.
Caryocolum schleichi is a moth of the family Gelechiidae. It is found in central, most of western and parts of eastern Europe, Morocco, Turkey, Syria, Afghanistan and Mongolia.

Gypsonoma salicicolana is a species of moth of the family Tortricidae. It is found in North America, where it has been recorded from Quebec to Florida, west through Texas to California and north to Alberta.
Euura vesicator is a species of sawfly belonging to the family Tenthredinidae. The larvae feed internally in a gall on the leaves of purple willow and its hybrids. It was first described by Johann Jacob Bremi-Wolf in 1849.
Euura viminalis is a species of sawfly belonging to the family Tenthredinidae. The larva feed within galls on the leaves of willows. It was first described by Carl Linnaeus in his landmark 1758 10th edition of Systema Naturae.
