Question

All branch tops are affected, mainly new leaves. Found two small green caterpillars between leaves. Suspect olive moth?

Answer

Dear Yann,yes, I think you are right – it really looks like olive moth (Prays oleae). The damage to the young shoots and the presence of small green caterpillars fit this species perfectly. With best regards Milan Zubrik
