Moved
Moved from gall mites.

We've been calling these all H. aesella, but it is true that there is another described Heliozela in Texas and no one really knows whether these grape galls are made by just one or both of the two, if they are in fact distinct species.

Shield bearer moth
This is Heliozela sp, a shield bearer moth.
