__NOTOC__ ''Oinophila'' is a small genus of the fungus moth family, Tineidae. Therein, it belongs to the subfamily Hieroxestinae.〔Pitkin & Jenkins (2004)〕 ''O. v-flava'', often misspelled "''-flavum''", is commonly known as the Wine Moth. Its caterpillars borrow into moist cork – such as of wine bottles stored in a damp cellar – in search of the mould which they primarily eat.〔Bennett (2003)〕 ==Species== ''Oinophila'' is only a minor lineage in a small subfamily, but the notoriety of the well-known Wine Moth made it quite well known. In the past, it was thus used as a sort of "wastebin taxon" for miscellanoues Hieroxestinae. Four species remain in the genus at present, but two of these do not actually seem to belong here – they might even be no Hieroxestinae:〔Robinson ()〕 * ''Oinophila argyrospora'' Meyrick, 1931 (provisionally placed here) * ''Oinophila nesiotes'' Walsingham, 1908 * ''Oinophila v-flava'' (Haworth, 1828) * ''Oinophila xanthorrhabda'' Meyrick, 1915 (provisionally placed here) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Oinophila」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
