Coleophora albella

Coleophora albella is a moth of the family Coleophoridae. It is found in most of Europe. The wingspan is 16–18 millimetres (0.63–0.71 in). Adults are on wing from May to June. The larvae feed on Silene nutans and Silene vulgaris. They feed within the seed capsules of their host plant, living within a movable case constructed from an empty seed case, which is then attached to successive pods, while the larva feeds on the seeds.
