Epermenia pimpinella is a moth in the family Epermeniidae. It was described by Mary Murtfeldt in 1900.[1] It is found in North America, where it has been recorded from South Carolina, Ohio, Illinois, Arkansas and Oklahoma.[2][3]
The wingspan is 12–14 mm. The forewings range from dark slate grey to brownish, with an intermingling of dingy-white scales and with a generally smudged appearance with purplish reflections. There are three rounded dorsal tufts overlying a fine paler fringe. The hindwings are narrowly lanceolate, with long fine silky fringes.[4]
The larvae feed on Cryptotaenia, Taenidia and Zizia species. They mine the leaves of their host plant. The mine has the form of a full-depth blotch. The black granular frass is deposited within the mine. Larvae have a deep brownish yellow body and a brownish-orange head.[5]
