Genus Ochyrotica Rank Species | ||
The brown leaffolder (Ochyrotica concursa) is a moth of the Pterophoridae family. It is known from Sri Lanka.
In the past it was also recorded from the Ryukyu Islands (Tokunoshima, Okinawa), as well as in Minamidaitōjima, Taiwan, China, the Philippines, India, the Moluccas and New Guinea, but research suggest these records are not related to this species.
The length of the forewings is 6–7 mm.
The larvae feed on Ipomoea batatas.
