Description of Incurvariidae
The Incurvariidae are members of the Superfamily Incurvarioidea. These are small to medium-small moths with a wingspan 0.9-3.3 cm. Their antennae range from short to very long, but they are simple. Wings are rounded at the tips, and tiny spines (aculeae) are present on the forewing. Females have strong ovipositors, used to pierce plants when eggs are laid. Larvae either form cases or bore into stems, seeds, or fruits of host plants.
