Chionodes discoocellella, the eyeringed chionodes moth, is a moth in the family Gelechiidae.[1] It is found in the United States, where it has been recorded from Maine to South Dakota, Florida, Texas and Colorado.[2][3]
The forewings are brown, tinged with roseate or purple, and faintly streaked with ocherous within the inner margin, and with a yellowish-white spot containing a black central dot at the end of the disc, a small black spot on the fold, and one about the middle of the wing, and with a few ocherous-yellow small spots around the apex between the nervules.[4]
The larvae feed on Fallopia convolvulus, Persicaria chinensis, Persicaria pensylvanica, Persicaria punctata and Rumex crispus.
