Heliozela aesella is a moth of the family Heliozelidae. It was described by Vactor Tousey Chambers in 1877.[1] It is found in the United States, including Illinois, Iowa, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New York, Ohio and Wisconsin[2] and Quebec in Canada.
Adults are on wing from late April to early May in one generation per year.
The larvae feed on Vitis species. Full-grown larvae cut out a case and drop to the ground. Pupation takes place within this case after overwintering. Larvae and galls can be found in late May.[3]
