Nemapogon inconditella is a moth of the family Tineidae. It is found in most of Europe[1] and North Africa, including Morocco. The wingspan is 12–16 mm.[2] Adults are similar to Nemapogon clematella. Both species have cream-white forewings, covered with light brown scales. However, inconditella has two spots at the base of the frontal margin. Furthermore, there is a dark spot in the middle. The larvae feed on fungi, including Trametes versicolor.[3]
