LEPIDOPTERA, Oinophilidae -- <Images> & <Juveniles>
Clausen (1940) remarked
that an occasional species of Oinophilidae is found to develop the predatory
habit, although this seems only incidental to the normal phytophagous
feeding. Ereunetis minuscula
Wesm. was reported as predaceous on the cottony-cushion scale and other
coccids in Puerto Rico, even though the species was primarily a plant
scavenger. References: Please refer to <biology.ref.htm>, [Additional
