Tinea svenssoni is a moth of the family Tineidae. It is found in northern Europe ( Norway, Sweden, Finland, the Baltic region), Russia, as well as North America where has been recorded from Québec.
The wingspan is 13–18 millimetres (0.51–0.71 in). Difficult to distinguish from Tinea pellionella , Tinea columbariella and Tinea dubiella but the genitalia are diagnostic.
The larvae live in bird nests, typically in the nests of cavity-nesting species, such as tits and owls. [1]
