Spatalistis bifasciana is a species of moth of the family Tortricidae. It is found in most of Europe.[3]
The wingspan is 12–17 mm.[2] Adults are on wing from May to July.[2]
The larvae have been recorded feeding internally in the berries or fruits of Vaccinium myrtillus, Vaccinium uliginosum, Rhamnus catharcticus, Cornus mas and Ligustrum vulgare.[4] However, recent research recorded the larvae amongst dead Quercus and Castanea sativa leaves.[5]
