Grapholita jungiella is a moth of the Tortricidae family. It is found in most of Europe (except Iceland, the Iberian Peninsula, most of the Balkan Peninsula and Ukraine), east to the Near East and the eastern part of the Palearctic ecozone.
The wingspan is 10–13 mm. Adults are on wing from April to May. Depending on the location, there are either one or two generations.
The larvae feed on Lathyrus linifolius and Vicia sepium. They spin the leaves of their host together or live inside the seed pod.
