Agonopterix rosaciliella is a moth in the Depressariidae family. It was described by Busck in 1904.[1] It is found in North America, where it has been recorded from Alaska and western Saskatchewan through Washington to California and Arizona.[2]
The wingspan is 20-26 mm. The forewings are ochreous-white overlaid with reddish and suffused with reddish fuscous, and irrorated with sparse blackish scales. The basal portion of the forewings is light and contains a fuscous spot and is followed by a deep reddish-fuscous shade. There is a series distinct fuscous spots on the costa and termen, the former alternated with small whitish-ochreous spots. There are also four white discal spots, edged with black. The hindwings are light fuscous.[3]
The larvae feed on Angelica arguta, Angelica hendersonii, Conioselinum chinense, Ligusticum apiifolium, Oenanthe sarmentosa, Osmorhiza chilensis, Osmorhiza occidentalis and Echinopanax horridum.[4]
