| Genus: | Eana |
| Species: | incanana |
| Authority: | (Stephens, 1852) |
Local in woodland throughout much of Britain. In Hampshire fairly widespread, but not particularly common, in most areas, except for the New Forest. It is relatively scarce on the Isle of Wight. Wingspan 17-22 mm. The rounded forewing and conspicuous curved subbasal fascia are characteristic [Bradley]. Larva feeds in a web in the flowers of Bluebell and possibly Wild Garlic (references to other pabula, such as Ox-eye Daisy, are potentially doubtful).
