RASPBERRY MOTH

Picture of Raspberry Moth

The Raspberry Moth (Lampronia rubiella) is a moth of the family Incurvariidae with a wing span of between 11 and 14 mm found throughout Europe flying from June to July at night. The adult lay her eggs in raspberry plants, and the emerging caterpillars damage the receptacles of ripening fruit before hibernating and then working their way into the buds and young shoots.
