Lyonetiidae

Lyonetiidae is a family of moths with some 200 described species.[1] These are small, slender moths, the wingspan rarely exceeding 1 cm. The very narrow forewings, held folded backwards covering the hindwings and abdomen, often have pointed apices noticeably up- or down-turned. The larvae are leaf miners.

gollark: Hmm. Weird.
gollark: Because if it's the first one, you can't resaonably draw the conclusion that you did.
gollark: Do you mean that in the sense of "30% of observed deaths were due to bladed weapons and 10% guns" or "30% of bladed weapon attacks lead to death and 10% of gun ones do"?
