Prochoreutis myllerana

Prochoreutis myllerana, Miller’s nettle-tap or small metal-mark, is a moth of the family Choreutidae found in Asia and Europe.

[2] Miller's nettle-tap was first described by Johan Christian Fabricius in 1794 from a specimen found in Sweden.

These moths are characterized by 2 + 2 white dots on the upper part of the wings, near the edge.

[5] Moreover in P. myllerana, the head of a larva is uniformly pale brown, contrary to Prochoreutis sehedestediana.

The pupa forms in a dense white, spindle-shaped cocoon (circa 10 mm long), in a folded leaf.
