The buddleia budworm moth (Pyramidobela angelarum) is a moth in the Oecophoridae family. It is known only from urban situations near the coast of California in the United States, but is most likely is introduced there, since the only known food plant is the ornamental Buddleia, which is a primarily tropical genus.

The length of the forewings is 7.8-9.5 mm. The ground color of the forewings is gray-brown, lightly speckled with brown. The ground color of the hindwings is pale gray. Adults are on wing from late February to early December.[2]

The larvae have been recorded feeding on Buddleia species. They roll and skeletonize the leaves of their host plant and bore into the terminal buds.
