Aspilanta
Aspilanta is a genus of very small moths in the family Heliozelidae that is native to North America. The larvae are leaf miners. Most Aspilanta species feed on Vitaceae with the exception of A. hydrangaeella and A. argentifera, which feed on species of hydrangea and Myricaceae respectively. The name of the genus is a partial anagram of Antispila.
