Grapholita orobana is a moth belonging to the family Tortricidae. The species was first described by Georg Friedrich Treitschke in 1830.[1] It is native to the Palearctic.[2]
The wingspan is 11-15mm.The palpi are whitish. Forewings dark brown, sometimes sprinkled with pale ochreous ; costa with strong ochreous-white strigulae, some ending in leaden metallic marks ; a long moderately broad curved ochreous white median dorsal blotch ; ocellus paler, edged with leaden-metallic, with several black dashes. Hindwings in male whitish with broad dark fuscous terminal border, in female dark fuscous, lighter basally.The larva is deep yellow, brownish-tinged ; head and plate of 2 almost black.[3]
The larvae feed on Vicia spp., eating the ripening seeds. The moths fly in the sunshine in July.

Vikkefrøvikler (Grapholita orobana) er en sommerfugl i gruppen av viklere (Tortricidae).
En liten til middelsstor (vingespenn 11-15 millimeter), sjokoladebrun vikler. Forvingen har, som vanlig hos denne slekten, en kommaformet, hvit flekk ved bakkanten, denne mangler brun midtstripe. Utenfor denne er det to smale, metallfargede skråstreker, ved framkanten tallrike hvite skråstreker. Bakvingen er brun, skinnende hvit ved roten. Arten er vanskelig å skille fra erteknappfrøvikler (Grapholita lunulana) på ytre utseende, men hos vikkefrøvikleren er den kommaformede hvite flekken på forvingen gjerne noe innsnevret i midten. Ellers kan flygetiden være en nyttig hjelp til å skille artene, vikkefrøvikleren flyr senere på sommeren enn erteknappfrøvikleren.
Larvene utvikler seg i belgene på vikker (Vicia spp.), der de spiser de modnende frøene. De voksne viklerne flyr i solskinn i juli.
Den er utbredt over det meste av Europa, unntatt lengst i nord, og i det nordlige Asia. I Norge er den funnet spredt nord til Nord-Trøndelag.
