About Epiblema sticticana (Fabricius, 1794)
Epiblema sticticana (Fabricius, 1794) has a wingspan ranging from 15–20 mm (0.59–0.79 in). Its forewings are light brown, and feature a large, subquadrate whitish blotch on the dorsal portion. This species is very similar in appearance to Epiblema scutulana and Epiblema cirsiana, but is generally browner and lighter in overall color than those two species. It is distributed across nearly all of Europe, the eastern Palearctic realm, and the Near East. It can primarily be found growing in waste grounds, rough meadows, damp grounds, and coastal areas.
