Digitivalva delaireae

Digitivalva delaireae is a moth of the family Acrolepiidae that is endemic to South Africa.

[1][2] It is a potential biological control agent for Delairea odorata, the larval host plant.

[2] Mehelis et al., 2015 test the moth's food preferences and find a strong preference for D. odorata and against any vulnerable native plants in California and Oregon, making this a good biocontrol especially for those areas.
