Oncocera
is a genus of snout moths. It was described by Stephens in 1829.
Oncocera
semirubella is a small moth of the family Pyralidae. It is found in Europe, including the British Isles.
In general, Phycitinae are smallish and slender-bodied moths, resembling fungus moths (family Tineidae) in appearance, though they have the well-developed proboscis typical of snouth moths and in many cases also the tell-tale "snout" consisting of elongated and straight labial palps. They are usually inconspicuous; while the forewings of some are quite prominently patterned, even these have usually rather nondescript greyish-brown colors and in the natural environment the pattern is cryptic. Yet a few species of Phycitinae, such as "
Oncocera
semirubella", are unusually bright-colored by moth standards, while those of genus "Myelois" resemble members of unrelated "micromoth" family Yponomeutidae and like these are called "ermine moths" due to their bright white forewings with tiny black spots.
