''Archips cerasivorana'', the ugly-nest caterpillar moth, is a species of moth of the Tortricidae family.The caterpillars of this species are known to create nests by tying the leaves of their host plant together. Within the nests, they live and feed off the leaves that have been tied together. The larvae are brownish or greenish-yellow with a shiny dark brown head. Larvae can be found from May to July. The species overwinters as an egg, and pupation takes place within the nest. Caterpillars are seen follow one another in trails, a behavior prompted by the release of signaling pheromones from their spinnarets.〔 ''A. cerasivorana'' is found throughout North America, as far North as Alaska and as far south as North Carolina. The wingspan is 20–25 mm. The forewings are dull orange marked with irregular dark brownish spots. The hindwings are yellow with orange shading. Adults can be found from July to September in one generation per year. == Taxonomy == ''A. cerasivorana'' is commonly referred to as the ugly-nest caterpillar moth. It is a species of moth in the Tortricidae family. Related species include ''Archips fervidana.'' ''Archips rileyana'' is very similar to ''A. cerasivorana'', both in appearance and larval habits. At first, ''A. rileyana'' was considered a subspecies of ''A. cerasivorana'', but Obraztsov (1959) demonstrated that both adults and larvae of the two species can be separated. ''A. cerasivorana'' is characterized by an uncus with parallel sides in the male, a large blunt signum in the female, and smaller, sometimes body-colored pinacula on the larval abdomen. In contrast, ''A. rileyana'' is characterized by a spatulate uncus in the male, a moderate pointed signum in the female, and very large, conspicuous, black pinacula on the larval abdomen.
