''Lampronia corticella'', the raspberry moth, is a moth of the family Prodoxidae. The species was first described by Carl Linnaeus in his 1758 10th edition of ''Systema Naturae''. It is found in most of Europe, except Iceland, the Iberian Peninsula and the Balkan Peninsula. It is an introduced species in North America, where it was first detected in New Brunswick, Canada, in 1936. The wingspan is 10–12 mm.9-12 mm. The head is light yellow-ochreous mixed with fuscous. Forewings dark fuscous, with scattered pale yellowish dots. There are four small costal and two larger dorsal pale ochreous-yellowish spots; tips of apical cilia whitish. Hindwings are dark grey.

Prodoxidae
The Prodoxidae are a family of moths, generally small in size and nondescript in appearance. They include species of moderate pest status, such as the Lampronia capitella, currant shoot borer, and others of considerable ecological and evolutionary interest, such as various species of "yucca moths". Description and affinities Prodoxidae are a family of primitive monotrysian Lepidoptera. Some of these small-to-medium-sized moths are day flying, like ''Lampronia capitella'', known to European gardeners as the currant shoot borer. Others occur in Africa and Asia. The other common genera are generally confined to dry areas of the United States. ''Tetragma gei'' feeds on mountain avens (''Geum triflorum'') in the US. ''Greya politella'' lay eggs in the flowers of Saxifragaceae there. ''Prodoxoides asymmetra'' occurs in Chile and Argentina, but all other prodoxid moth genera have a northern distribution. The enigmatic genus ''Tridentaforma'' is sometimes placed here and assumed to be ...
