03FE87A3FF98FF96FF473663FB85E434.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. Agnippe and some species of Aristotelia have a similar wing pattern, but Agnippe differs by the forewing having R 5 and M 1 stalked and M 2 and M 3 stalked, and the male genitalia having a split valva and a dorsal part of gnathos (Fig. 25). Hosts. Fagaceae: Quercus spp. (A. laudatella). Fabaceae: Lespedeza sp. (A. sp.), Gleditsia sp. (A. biscolorella). Rosaceae: Cercocarpus ledifolius Nutt. (A. abdita), Prunus spp. (A. prunifoliella).

03FE87A3FF98FF96FF473663FB85E434.taxon	description	Diversity and distribution. Agnippe includes 23 species occurring throughout North America, southeastern Europe, and Asia (Amsel 1961; Forbes 1923; Huemer and Karsholt 1999; Keifer 1927; Li 1993; Li and Zheng 1998; Meyrick 1925; Okada 1961; Wang and Li 1994). Notes. Chambers (1873 a) differentiated Evippe from Agnippe based on the absence of R 1 in the forewing (termed the first subcostal branch), but he mentioned his uncertainty in naming this genus. Although R 1 is absent in the male of the type species, E. prunifoliella, this vein is present in the female as well as in the female of A. crinella Keifer. Busck (1906, fig. 1) illustrated a male forewing of A. evippeella Busck that lacks R 1. Male and female genital characters indicate all species belong to one genus.	en	Lee, Sangmi, Brown, Richard L.

03FE87A3FF99FF93FF47361EFB42E17D.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. Glauce and Agnippe differ from other genera of Teleiodini by lacking tufts of raised scales on the forewing. Glauce is easily distinguished from Agnippe by having an undivided male valva and vein M 1 separate from R 5 in the forewing. Hosts. Unknown.	en	Lee, Sangmi, Brown, Richard L.

03FE87A3FF99FF93FF47361EFB42E17D.taxon	description	Diversity and distribution. Glauce includes one species in eastern United States. Notes. An undescribed species of Glauce has been misidentified in many collections as the type species, G. pectenalaeella. Chambers described the male of G. pectenalaeella from Texas as having a hindwing with the costal margin having a row of widened “ bristles ” that changed gradually into large scales from the base to the middle. Male specimens matching this description have been collected in longleaf pine savannahs in Louisiana and remnants of the Black Belt prairie in Mississippi. These specimens have sex scales that vary from black near the wing base to gray near midwing. In contrast, the undescribed species, sp. 1 in Appendix 1 and elsewhere, has a black, hair pencil near the base of the costa that extends no more than one third the wing length. The undescribed species occurs widely in a variety of habitats in eastern North America.	en	Lee, Sangmi, Brown, Richard L. (2008): Revision of Holarctic Teleiodini (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae).

03FE87A3FF9CFF8CFF4733D4FD7BE048.taxon	description	Diversity and distribution. Telphusa includes five species occurring in eastern and western United States and Canada (Busck 1903; Forbes 1923; Fracker 1915; Meyrick 1909; Walsingham 1908). An additional 17 species have been reported from the Neotropical Region (Becker 1984). Notes. This genus previously has been considered to have a worldwide distribution; however, it is restricted here to species occurring in North and South America. Species previously assigned to this genus that occur in Palearctic and Afrotropical Regions, as well as T. latifasciella in Nearctic Region, need to be transferred into other genera after further study.	en	Lee, Sangmi, Brown, Richard L.

03FE87A3FF89FF81FF47323BFD6EE14A.taxon	description	Diversity and distribution. The twelve species of Parastenolechia occur in Europe and eastern Asia, with highest diversity in the latter region (Elsner 1995 [1996]; Huemer and Karsholt 1999; Kanazawa 1991; Okada 1961; Omelko 1988; Park 1993, 2000 b; Park and Ponomarenko 2006). Notes. Laris was described to include two species in two subgenera and was differentiated from other genera by a strongly differentiated sacculus (Omelko 1988). Park (1993) synonymized subgenus Origo with Parastenolechia and differentiated the nominal subgenus, including L. collucata, from Parastenolechia based on the venation of forewing with CuA 2 present (absent in Parastenolechia), R 4 and R 5 with a long stalk, and male genitalia with lobate distal portion of the valval sacculus. However, the forewing has CuA 2 present in both genera, although it is almost vestigial in Parastenolechia (Kanazawa 1985), and the length of R 4 + 5 varies among species in other genera of Teleiodini. The valval sacculus is distally lobate in both L. collucata and species of Parastenolechia, as illustrated by Kanazawa (1985). Species of Parastenolechia and L. collucata are the only taxa of Teleiodini with a forewing lacking CuA 1. In addition they have an uncus with a truncate apex and a gnathos with the ventral part being cushionlike with a median projection, which are synapomorphic for the polytomy of Parastenolechia, Stenolechia, and Chorivalva (Lee 2007). Therefore, Laris is regared as a junior synonym of Parastenolechia.	en	Lee, Sangmi, Brown, Richard L. (2008): Revision of Holarctic Teleiodini (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae).

Hindwing (length / width ratio 5.7) with R 5, M 1, M 2 and M 3 separate, CuA 1 and M 3 separate. Male genitalia (Fig. 33): uncus slender, deeply bifid to base; gnathos absent; costal part of valva well developed, with internal duct and bulbous base; saccular part of valva absent; tegumen basal width / length ratio 0.9; phallus attached to vinculum, curved at base and diagonally truncate apically, without cornuti. Female genitalia (Fig. 48): antrum funnel shaped posteriorly, not widened anteriorly; apophyses anteriores about 2 x length of abdominal segment VIII; signum roughly diamond shaped with serrate margins, with projecting flanges from obtuse corners.

03FE87A3FFB4FFBAFF4734CCFA8EE30E.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. Argyrolacia was established primarily on the presence of a deeply bifid uncus, a character state also shared with Xenolechia and Altenia. Argyrolacia differs from these two genera by lacking an ocellus and having the forewing with M 1 stalked with R 5 and CuA 2 absent, the hindwing with M 1 absent, and the female antrum sclerotized instead of membranous.

03FE87A3FFB5FFBAFF4731E3FD68E4C9.taxon	description	Description. Imago. Labial palpus with third segment longer than second. Clypeus with ventral margin sinuate. Antenna longer than half forewing length. Ocellus present. Posterior area of sitophore with four campaniform sensilla in asymmetrical trapezoid, posterior pair closer together than anterior pair; anterior area with four or six campaniform sensilla. Forewing lanceolate to slender (length / width ratio 4.4) with tufts of raised scales; R 5, M 1, M 2, and M 3 separate, CuA 1 and CuA 2 present; median fascia absent or present, if present, transverse or directed from base of costa toward posterior margin. Hindwing (length / width ratio 3.3) with R 5 and M 1 stalked, M 2 and M 3 separate, M 3 and CuA 1 connate. Male abdominal sternum VIII with posterior margin slightly emarginate mesially; tergum VIII lingulate, with pair of hair pencils anterolaterally. Female abdominal segment VIII without special modifications, membranous to strongly sclerotized, with only lateral areas strongly sclerotized in some species. Male genitalia: uncus deeply bifid for ½ or more length, with two digitate processes; gnathos absent; saccular part of valva absent; costal part of valva well developed or reduced; tegumen basal width / length ratio 1.6; vinculum well developed to small, with pair of processes; phallus broad, stout, without cornuti. Female genitalia: apophyses anteriores about 1.5 x length of abdominal segment VIII; ostium bursae near anterior margin of sternum VIII, surrounded by small sclerotized plate; ductus bursae longer than length of corpus bursae, smooth or covered with microtrichia; corpus bursae distinct; signum large, rhomboid, with serrate margins. Larva: Head and prothoracic shield yellowish; body with black pinacula (Emmet 2002). Pupa. Less than 6 mm in length, maxillary palpi touching or adjacent to genae; antennae adjacent to each other for about 3 x greater distance than the length of visible ends of metathoracic legs; pronotum with midline length 1 / 3 or less greatest lateral length; prothoracic legs separated from oculi; abdomen usually lacking setae (Patoèka and Turcáni 2005).	en	Lee, Sangmi, Brown, Richard L.

03FE87A3FFB5FFBAFF4731E3FD68E4C9.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. The definition of Altenia is based primarily on the deeply bifid uncus with a pair of digitate lobes, which is shared with Argyrolacia and Xenolechi a (Fig. 33). Argyrolacia differs from Altenia in having CuA 2 absent in the forewing. Xenolechia can be distinguished by lacking the valva in male genitalia. Hosts. Empetraceae: Empetrum nigrum L. (A. perspersella). Anacardiaceae: Pistacia vera L. (A. modesta). Aceraceae: Acer spp. (A. scriptella).
