Abstrakt:	Abstract: Janetiella convolvuli sp. nov. is described and its taxonomically important structural features are illustrated. Larvae develop in flower and leaf buds of Convolvulus arvensis L. (Convolvulaceae) and pupate in the soil. Three or more generations develop per year. Flower and leaf buds of Convolvulus arvensis attacked by Janetiella convolvuli sp. nov. were found only in Armenia where this species is used for biological control of the weed Convolvulus arvensis.
