Stomphastis thraustica is a moth of the Gracillariidae family. It is known from Democratic Republic of Congo, Congo, Central African Republic, Ghana, Nigeria, Namibia, Zimbabwe, South Africa, Madagascar, Malaysia, Indonesia (Sulawesi, Java) and India (West Bengal, Karnataka).[2] It was recently also recorded from China.[3]
In China, there are over ten overlapping generations per year.
The larvae feed on Jatropha species (including Jatropha curcas and Jatropha gossypifolia) and Sebastiana chamaelea. They mine the leaves of their host plant. The mine has the form of an irregular blotch mine, often several on one leaf.
