General comments:
All of the Coleophora species in our area are under-recorded; naming most requires either finding the larvae or dissecting the genitalia of the adults (or both!). For this reason, notes made here are deliberately short, but will be updated on a species by species basis as information surfaces.

Widespread and common. On White Clover.

The dark ("fuscous") and white ringed apical portions of the antennae immediately separate the adults from the other metallic green members of the group.

	Case: A good quality photo or specimen of the case and plant/pabulum and the bred moth is required.
