Platyptilia omissalis

Platyptilia omissalis is a moth of the Pterophoridae family. It is found in Australia from southern Queensland to Victoria, south-western Australia and Tasmania.

Some authors consider it a synonym of Sinpunctiptilia emissalis.

Adults have a weak, almost hovering flight.

The larvae feed on the leaves of Parahebe species, including Parahebe perfoliata. At first, feeding results in a blotch mine on the upper surface of the leaf. Later, the larvae feed exposed on the upper surface of the leaf. The pupa is elongate, without a cocoon, and rests (fully exposed) on the vegetation attached to a silk pad by hooks at the rear end.
