Ypsolopha Latreille [1796] cinsi Türkiye'de 21 tür ile bilinir. Bilinen kayıtlar genellikle birkaç il ile sınırlı birkaç faunistik çalışmaya dayanmaktadır ve biyolojileri hakkında hemen hemen hiç çalışma yoktur. Bu çalışmada, Ypsolopha ustella (Clerck, 1759)’nın Türkiye popülasyonları ilk kez değerlendirilmiştir. Faunistik kaydı Türkiye'de sadece Ankara ilinden bilinen türün, Beypazarı ilçesi meşe ormanından toplanan larvaları incelenmiştir. Quercus pubescens Willd ağaçlarından toplanan larvalar laboratuvarda konukçu ağacın yapraklarıyla beslenmiştir. Larvaların hepsi pupa evresine girmiştir. Pupa evresi ortalama 18 gün sürmüştür. Larval, pupa ve ergin evreleri tanımlanmış ve fotoğraflanmıştır. Ergin güvelerin kanat renkleri ve desen varyasyonları ortaya konulmuştur.

The genus Ypsolopha Latreille, [1796] is known with 21 species in Türkiye. Known records are generally based on a few faunistic studies limited to a few provinces and there are almost no studies on their biology. In this study, the Turkish populations of Ypsolopha ustella (Clerck, 1759) were evaluated for the first time. Larvae of the species, whose faunistic record is known only from Ankara province in Türkiye, collected from the oak forest of Beypazarı district, were examined. Larvae collected from Quercus pubescens Willd were fed with laeves of host plants in the laboratory. All larvae entered the pupal stage. The pupal stage lasted an average of 18 days. Its larval, pupal and adult stages were described and photographed. Wing colors and pattern variations of adult moths were presented.
