About Acrobasis consociella Hübner, 1813
Acrobasis consociella Hübner, 1813 is a moth species in the Pyralidae family. It is distributed across Europe. Its wingspan ranges from 19 to 22 mm. This species is very similar to Acrobasis sodalella. Meyrick describes it as differing from A. sodalella only in these traits: its forewings are mixed with or sometimes heavily suffused by dark fuscous, the basal area of the forewings is distinctly paler and more mixed with ochreous-whitish, and its first line is less distinct and browner. The larva is pale grey, with a yellowish or greenish tinge; it has dark grey subdorsal and lateral lines, and a whitish, black-ringed lateral spot on segment 3; its head and the plate on segment 2 are yellow-brownish with darker dots. Larvae live in a silken gallery among the spun leaves of oak, developing in May and June. The adult moth flies in a single generation from the end of May to August. Larvae feed on oak.
