Aporodes floralis is a species of moth in the family Crambidae first described by Jacob Hübner in 1809. It is found in most of continental Europe (except the Benelux, and the Baltic region),[1] Algeria, Syria, Afghanistan, central Asia, north-western India[2] and Yemen[3]

The wingspan is 15–20 mm. Adults are on wing from May to the beginning of October in two generations per year.

The larvae feed on Cynara cardunculus and Convolvulus arvensis.[4]
