traça do fumo
Explanation:
Ephestia elutella
Nomes populares: traça, traça do fumo
(...)
É considerada uma praga secundária, pois as larvas se desenvolvem sobre resíduos de grãos e farinhas deixados sobre a ação de outras pragas. A traça infesta as sementes do cacau armazenado, folhas de fumo, frutos secos, nozes, cereais e seus produtos.

Pode ser também chamada de "cocoa moth", "almond moth" ou "warehouse mouth".
