Bucculatricidae
Bucculatricidae or (Bucculatrigidae) is a family of moths. This small family has representatives in all parts of the world. Some authors place the group as a subfamily of the family Lyonetiidae. Adults of this family are easily overlooked, being very small with narrow wings wrapped around the body at rest. When small, the larvae are leaf-miners, forming distinctive brown blotches on leaves. When larger, they usually feed on the leaves externally. Many species have specific host plants. The pupal cases have distinctive longitudinal ridges, leading to members of the family commonly being called ribbed cocoon makers. Some authors recognize just a single large genus, ''Bucculatrix'', although two Australian genera, '' Cryphioxena'' and the scribbly gum moths (''Ogmograptis'' spp.) are now sometimes placed in this family rather than in Elachistidae.

Scribbly Gum Moth
''Ogmograptis'', the scribbly gum moths, is a genus in the family Bucculatricidae and was first described by Edward Meyrick in 1935, as a monotypic genus (consisting of one species only). They are found in the Australian Capital Territory, New South Wales and Queensland. However, in 2007, Cooke and Edwards argued that the patterning of the scribbles was different for each of the three eucalypts, Eucalyptus pauciflora, '' E. racemosa'' ssp. ''rossii'', and '' E. delegatensis'') and that it was likely that these differing patterns were caused by different species of scribbly gum moths. Taxonomy In 2012, Horak ''et al.'' published a new account of the genus, describing eleven new species of ''Ogmograptis'', and distinguishing three groups, the ''scribula'', ''maxdayi'' and ''triradiata'' groups. The groupings of ''Ogmograptis'' given by Horak ''et al.'' are shown below: One species, '' Ogmograptis notosema'' Meyrick 1922 (''Cryphioxena ''Cryphioxena'' is a genus of moths in ...

Bucculatrix Ambrosiaefoliella
''Bucculatrix ambrosiaefoliella'' is a species of moth in the family Bucculatricidae. It is found in North America, where it has been recorded from California, Texas, Arizona, Pennsylvania, Kentucky, Missouri, Iowa, Maine and Ohio.
