Adela purpurea is a moth of the Adelidae family or fairy longhorn moths. It was described by Walker in 1863. It is widespread in boreal North America, from the Yukon through the southern provinces of Canada to Quebec and further south to northern New Jersey.
Adults are on wing from May to June in northern Canada and in April in New England. Adults have been observed visiting Salix blossoms.[3]
