Ditula angustiorana, the red-barred tortrix, is a moth of the family Tortricidae found in Africa, Asia, Europe and North Africa. Other common names are the fruit-tree tortrix and the vine tortrix. The moth was first described by Adrian Hardy Haworth in 1811.
The wingspan is 12–18 mm. The forewings are ferruginous ochreous, blackish-mixed in disc posteriorly. The base and costal fold in the male are dark brown. There is a ferruginous-brown oblique mark from dorsum near the base. The central fascia and costal patch are deep ferruginous, often separated by a whitish suffusion on the costa, and the patch extended as a fascia to the tornus. The hindwings are blackish-grey, in female lighter anteriorly. The larva is greenish-yellowish, with a head and plate of 2 green or light brown.
Single brooded, the moths are on wing from May to August (depending on the location), with an occasional second brood in September and October; has also been recorded in April. The pale yellow eggs are laid in groups on leaves mainly in June and July.
Larvae are found from August to April and May and are polyphagous feeding on the foliage of trees, usually amongst spun leaves and developing... Wikipedia →

Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Red-Barred Tortrix sighting in Munich on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 445th most-seen of the 521 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 20%, if each day is a fresh chance.
July
In that month about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Red-Barred Tortrix in Munich on a given day, against under 5% in August to June, the lowest months. That is one of Munich's wettest months, with about 140 mm of rain against 60 mm in February.
Between 8 and 11 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Red-Barred Tortrix sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is mostly seen at night.
9th of 12
Of the 12 cities where we can rate Red-Barred Tortrix sightings, Munich ranks 9th at under 5%. The best odds are in Liverpool (United Kingdom, about 10%), London (United Kingdom, about 10%) and Birmingham (United Kingdom, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Red-Barred Tortrix is recorded against all the insects logged in Munich (5 verified sightings), calibrated against known sighting rates. Figures are rounded to the nearest 10% because citizen-science data supports honest approximations, not decimals, and months with records from fewer than five people show "—". How it works.
