Parectopa plantaginisella is a moth of the Gracillariidae family. It is known from Québec in Canada and Kentucky, Maine, Michigan, Missouri and Vermont in the United States.[1]
The larvae feed on Erigeron species. They mine the leaves of their host plant. The mine starts as a narrow, winding and linear mine filled with frass. The mine ends in a large bladder-like mine, the upper and lower cuticles being puffed out.
