Teleiopsis baldiana is a moth of the family Gelechiidae described by William Barnes and August Busck in 1920. It is found in North America, where it has been recorded from California. [1] [2]

The wingspan is 19–21 mm. The forewings are bluish white, overlaid with fuscous, black and brown scales and with a rather well defined outwardly oblique fasciae of black raised scales from near the base of the costa to the basal fourth of the dorsum. There is an ill-defined light fuscous spot on the middle of costa, as well as an ill-defined transverse shade of fuscous over the end of the cell, edged exteriorly by a narrow nearly unmottled white fascia. There is also a short transverse streak of black-and-brown raised scales at the end of the cell and the tip of the wing is overlaid with fuscous. [3]

The larvae feed on Toxicodendron diversilobum . They roll the leaves of their host plant. [4]
