White-shouldered house moth

Endrosis sarcitrella

The white-shouldered house moth is a species of gelechioid moth. It belongs to the subfamily Oecophorinae of the concealer moth family, just like the brown house moth. Though several presumed congeners of "E. sarcitrella" were described, its genus "Endrosis" is currently understood to be monotypic.

The larva is a little grub-like caterpillar and lives on dry plant and animal debris, where it spins itself a small silken hideout. Recorded foodstuffs include dried fruits, cereals and other seeds, potatoes, rotting wood, and even insect specimens, wool and old textiles, and guano.

Distribution

This moth is a common species, found by now almost worldwide due to its synanthropic habits. It occurs regularly inside buildings, and being continuously-brooded, can be found at any time of year. It frequents light sources, and can be found in outbuildings where dried food such as grain is kept. It also inhabits birds nests.
