Microlepidoptera refers to a diverse group of small moths, typically characterized by their tiny size and delicate wings. This group includes various families, such as Gracillariidae and Tineidae, which are known for their unique life cycles and feeding habits. Many species are important for their roles in ecosystems, including pollination and serving as food for other animals. These moths are often found in a variety of habitats, from forests to grasslands. Microlepidoptera larvae, commonly known as caterpillars, can be leaf miners or web builders, affecting plant health. Their small size and cryptic coloration help them avoid predators, making them fascinating subjects for entomologists.
