The Sprinkled Rough-wing (Acleris literana) is a moth of the Tortricidae family. It is found in most of Europe. It is also found in the Near East.
Illustration from John Curtis's British Entomology Volume 6
It is a variable species and many different forms have been described, but all have a combination of pale green ground colour with whitish and blackish markings.
The wingspan is 18–21 mm. Adults are on wing from August to September and again from April to May after overwintering as an adult.
The larvae feed on Quercus species. They live between leaves spun together with silk.
