Blastobasis vittata

Blastobasis vittata is a moth of the family Blastobasidae. It was thought to be endemic to Madeira but is now known to inhabit the Netherlands, France, the Channel Islands, England and Northern Ireland.

Taxonomy
The name Blastobasis lignea was for a time used for records now identified as Blastobasis adustella. Karsholt & Sinev's taxonomic revision in 2004 reclassified Walsingham's original B. lignea specimen as B. vittata, making lignea properly the junior synonym of vittata. B. adustella was originally described by Walsingham as a variety of B. lignea.
