The poplar petiole gall moth (Ectoedemia populella) is a moth of the family Nepticulidae. It is widely distributed in North America east of the Rocky Mountains. [1] [2] It was first described by Danish-American entomologist August Busck in 1907. [2]
The adult wingspan 7-8.5 mm. [1]
The larvae induce globular galls on the petioles of several Populus species. [1] Mature larvae overwinter in the galls and adults emerge in spring. [1]
