Chrysoteuchia culmella · juostuotasis žolinis ugniukas

It is found in Europe. This species flies in June and July. Its normal flight time is at night, when it is attracted to light. By day it rests head-down on grass stalks and is easily disturbed. The larvae feed on the stems of various types of grasses, usually at the base.

On the yellowish-white background of the forewings there are numerous brown streaks of various lengths. In the rear part there is an arched, silvery transverse band; just behind it there is a much shorter band of the same color, at the rear angle of the wing.
