    Summary
    Type
    organism
    Genus
    Plodia
    Species
    interpunctella
    Common Name
    Indianmeal moth
    Description

    Adults are 8–10 millimetres (5⁄16–13⁄32 in) in length with 16–20 millimetres (5⁄8–13⁄16 in) wingspans. The distal two thirds of their forewings are generally reddish brown in color with a copper luster. They can also be bronze or dark gray. The more proximal parts of the wings are yellow-gray or white-gray, with a dark band at the intersection between the proximal and distal regions. The hindwings, in general, are uniformly gray.

    Genome update. Previously, the i5k Workspace@NAL hosted Plodia interpunctella genome assembly ilPloInte3.1 (GCF_027563975.1), NCBI Plodia interpunctella Annotation Release GCF_027563975.1-RS_2023_02, and Functional annotation of NCBI Plodia interpunctella Annotation Release GCF_027563975.1-RS_2023_02. The assembly and annotations have updated to the most recent assembly, Plodia interpunctella genome assembly ilPloInte3.2 (GCF_027563975.2)(link is external), NCBI Plodia interpunctella Annotation Release GCF_027563975.2-RS_2024_04(link is external), and Functional annotation of NCBI Plodia interpunctella Annotation Release GCF_027563975.2-RS_2024_04.
