Anacampsis blattariella, the birch sober, is a moth of the Gelechiidae family. It is found in most of Europe, except Ireland, the Iberian Peninsula and most of the Balkan Peninsula.[1]
The wingspan is 16–19 mm. Adults are on wing from July to September.[2]
The larvae feed on Betula species. They roll a leaf of their host plant longitudinally along the midrib. Larvae can be found in May and June. Pupation takes place in the larval feeding place.[3]
