Monopis
''Monopis'' is a genus of the fungus moth family (biology), family, Tineidae. Therein, it belongs to the nominate subfamily, Tineinae. A typical feature of these moths is a semi-transparent pale spot near the middle of the forewings. There usually are contrasting white markings adjacent to it. Otherwise, the forewings are generally unpatterned and brown to blackish-grey in color. ''Hyalospila'' is a synonym. The snout moth genus ''Zonula (moth)'' was junior homonym, invalidly described by Ragonot in 1888; the geometer moth genus ''Locha'' was invalidly described by Warren in 1894. Selected species Species currently placed in ''Monopis'' include: * ''Monopis argillacea'' (Meyrick, 1893) * ''Monopis burmanni'' Petersen, 1979 * ''Monopis chrysogramma'' (Lower, 1899) * ''Monopis cirrhospila'' Turner, 1923 * ''Monopis congestella'' (Walker, 1864) * ''Monopis crocicapitella'' (Clemens, 1859) (= ''M. heringi, M. hyalinella, M. lombardica'') * ''Monopis dimorphella'' Dugdale, 1971 * ...

Tinea Rusticella
''Monopis laevigella'', the skin moth, is a species of tineoid moth. It belongs to the fungus moth family (Tineidae), and therein to the nominate subfamily Tineinae. It is (under its junior synonym ''Tinea rusticella'') the type species of the genus ''Monopis'' and its junior objective synonym ''Hyalospila''. As with the common clothes moth (''Tineola bisselliella''), earlier authors frequently misapplied the name '' Tinea vestianella'' to the present species. It is not uncommon all across western Palearctic as well as in North America. It has not been recorded in Slovenia yet, but given that it occurs in all neighboring countries, it probably has simply been overlooked. Its absence from some Mediterranean islands may be genuine however. Description and ecology The adults of this small moth have a wingspan of 13–20 mm. On the wing around May to September (depending on the location), they are nocturnal and come out at dusk. They have dark brown forewings with a white frin ...

Monopis Obviella
''Monopis obviella'' is a species of tineoid moth. It belongs to the fungus moth family (Tineidae), and therein to the nominate subfamily Tineinae. It is (under the invalid name ''Tinea ferruginella'') the type species of ''Blabophanes'', today treated as a junior synonym of the genus ''Monopis''. '' M. crocicapitella'' was only separated from the present species in 1859, and is still frequently confused with it even by rather recent sources. Ecology and description It is not uncommon all across western Eurasia; while it has not been recorded in Slovenia yet, given that it occurs in all neighboring countries it probably has simply been overlooked. But it is apparently still a rather Continental species, as it seems absent from major Mediterranean islands and Iceland, and on Great Britain occurs mainly in the south, towards the English Channel. But confusion with ''M. crocicapitella'' makes the exact range of these moths still quite little known. The adults of this small moth hav ...

Monopis Crocicapitella
''Monopis crocicapitella'', the pale-backed clothes moth, is a moth of the family Tineidae described by James Brackenridge Clemens in 1859. It has a nearly cosmopolitan distribution. It was first described from the eastern United States. It is particularly destructive of fabric and clothes. The wingspan is 10–16 mm. It is similar to ''Monopis obviella'', but less distinctly-marked, with a darker dorsal streak and more speckled forewing. The ground colour of the hindwing is whitish grey or pale grey not dark with a slight purple tinge as in ''M. obviella''.

Monopis Imella
''Monopis imella'' is a moth of the family Tineidae found in Europe. The wingspan is 11–15 mm. Originally discovered in Britain around 1858, the Monopis Imella is an indistinctive species that has a yellowish bunch of scales located on the head, and a white line across its costa. There can sometimes be a pale spot on the forewing but usually the forewing looks plain. The larvae of the moth feed on animal and plant remains, particularly feathers, hair and fur. The Adulthood stage occurs between June–September, possibly in two different generations. This species has a large distribution across the British Isles, but overall is mostly uncommon Compared to other species it is nationally scarce, but most commonly found near the sea along in more wild habits compared to other British species of the same genus. Location: Found in Europe, mostly scattered across the British Isles The British Isles are a group of islands in the North Atlantic Ocean off the north-weste ...
