European Pepper Moth
Duponchelia fovealis
The adult European pepper moth is a small, mostly nocturnal moth found around cultivated plants, gardens, and greenhouses. It flies after dusk and feeds sparingly on available liquids while searching for mates and egg-laying sites. Females lay eggs near suitable host plants, where the newly hatched larvae can quickly find foliage and stems to eat.
