Epiblema scudderiana
Epiblema scudderiana, the goldenrod gall moth, is a species of tortricid moth in the family Tortricidae.[1][2][3][4] As their common name suggests, they do feed on and form galls on goldenrod stems. To overwinter the caterpillars line the inside of their galls with silk before going into diapause.[5]
