Gillmeria ochrodactyla is a moth of the family Pterophoroidae. It is found in most of Europe and has recently been recorded from Iran[1] and Tajikistan.[2]
The species was known as Gillmeria tetradactyla until recently, but is now known as Gillmeria ochrodactyla. Gillmeria tetradactyla is now an invalid name. Reason for this decision is eliminating the confusion with Platyptilia tetradactyla.
The wingspan is 24–28 millimetres (0.94–1.10 in). The moth flies from June to July.
The larvae feed on Tanacetum vulgare.
