Leek Moth
Acrolepiopsis assectella
The leek moth or onion leaf miner (Acrolepiopsis assectella) is a species of moth of family Acrolepiidae and the genus Acrolepiopsis. The species is native to Europe and Siberia, but is also found in North America, where it is an invasive species. While it was initially recorded in Hawaii, this was actually a misidentification of Acrolepiopsis sapporensis.
