Leuroperna sera is a moth of the Plutellidae family.^[1] It is found in Japan, Taiwan, Vietnam, Indonesia, India, Sri Lanka,^[2] Australia, and New Zealand.^[3]

Wingspan of adult is 10 millimetres (0.39 in).^[4] Similar to sympatric moth Plutella xylostella, but can be distinguished by much broader wings and genitalia. Caterpillar is about 10 mm in maximum length. Head with numerous blackish brown dots. Body green to yellowish tinged with a slender red or pale red dorsal, subdorsal, supraspiracular, subspiracular, and basal lines. Pupa very similar to above mentioned species, but with a pair of hooked setae and maxilla is always shorter than the mid leg. Pupation is in an open net-like white cocoon on leaf underside. Caterpillars of two species co-exist in the crop plants.^[5]

Caterpillar is known to feeds on economically valuable crucifers such as [[Brassica juncea]], [[Brassica napus]], cauliflower, cabbage, Chinese cabbage, radish, turnip and many other wild crucifers.^[5]
