Odontiinae
Minute to small (
8–25 mm
wingspan) moths with triangular wings, similar superficially to species in the subfamily
Pyraustinae
. No external features readily distinguish these moths from all of the other
Crambinae
. Larvae feed on a variety of plants, usually in a concealed manner.
Approximately 370 species of
Odontiinae
are known worldwide, from all regions. Fifty-seven species are known in North America, one of which is known in AB. The group was revised by
Munroe (1972b)
.
