Atralata is a genus of moths of the family Crambidae. It contains only one species, Atralata albofascialis, which is found in most of Europe, except Ireland, Great Britain, Norway , Finland , Lithuania and Greece.[2]
The wingspan is 10–14 mm.[3] There are two generations per year.
The larvae feed on Inula conyzae. They mine the leaves of their host plant. The mine has the form of a large brown blotch in the lower leaves. The frass is dispersed in the mine. Several larvae may be found in a single mine. Pupation takes place outside of the mine.[4] Larvae can be found from May to August.
