Caloptilia scaeodesma

Caloptilia scaeodesma, also known as the Kacang Putih Moth, is a moth of the family Gracillariidae. It is known from India (including the Andaman Islands) Indonesia (the Anambas Islands), Malaysia (Selangor), Sri Lanka and Vanuatu.^[1] The name is for their larvae's tendency to roll the ends of leaves onto itself, making it resemble rolled up Bombay Mix, which is called kacang putih in Malaysia and Singapore.^[2]
