''Parategeticula pollenifera'' is a moth of the Prodoxidae family. It is found in pine-oak forests in south-western Arizona, south-western New Mexico and Veracruz (in Mexico). The wingspan is 24–31 mm. Adults have relatively broad forewings with off-white and occasional dark scales. Females possess similar maxillary tentacles which are used to pickup pollen and active pollination of host flowers.〔(TOLweb )〕 The larvae feed on ''Yucca schottii'' and ''Yucca elephantipes''. Young larvae bore into the young fruit of their host plant and create a gall that replaces several seeds. When fully grown, they burrow into the soil, where pupation takes place. The larval diapause can last for at least two years. ==References==
