The family Tortricidae contains approximately 10,000 species, many of which are considered serious pests. Here you will find comprehensive resources for identifying adults and larvae of tortricids that threaten agriculture in the United States. Pest species as well as common non-target species are covered in detailed fact sheets and interactive identification keys. In addition, a DNA barcode database allows for the confirm of identifications using COI barcode data. This toolset is designed to aid in the identification of tortricid adults encountered during domestic surveys and larvae encountered during inspections at U.S. ports of entry. The toolset contains keys for adults and larvae, factsheets for tortricid pests and non-target tortricids, and a DNA sequence search tool. It is available both on the web and on CD-ROM.
