The Marion Flightless Moth or Subantarctic Caterpillar (Pringleophaga marioni) is a moth of the Tineidae family. It is endemic to Marion Island. Beside being unable to fly, this moth species is notable because of its ability to resist temperatures that are so low, that they would kill most other species.
