About Acleris logiana (Clerck, 1759)
Acleris logiana, commonly called the black-headed birch leaffolder moth or grey birch button, is a moth species belonging to the family Tortricidae. This species was first described by Carl Alexander Clerck in 1759. Its distribution covers most of Europe, with the exceptions of Ireland, Portugal, most of the Balkan Peninsula, and Ukraine. It can also be found in North America, the Russian Far East, Korea, and Japan. The wingspan of adult Acleris logiana measures 18 to 22 mm. Adult moths are active on the wing from September through April, after they complete overwintering. The larvae of this moth feed on Betula species, and they consume plant material while living between spun leaves of their host plant.
