Wikipedia Abstract

Yponomeuta plumbella is a moth from the family Yponomeutidae, the ermine moths. The wingspan of the moth ranges from 16 to 20 millimeters. The imago is clearly distinguishable from other related moths, because of the distinguished black mark in the middle of the inner rim of the forward wing and the black marking at the tip of the forward wing.
