260 DESCRIPTIONS OF AUSTRALIAN MICRO-LEPIDOPTERA, XVIII., 



but indistinct. Besides the following, only the single New Zea- 

 land species is known; probably the genus will prove to be of 

 considerable extent in Australia, as the species are inconspicuous 

 and retired in habit, and I have never found one in any numbers. 

 The larva of the New Zealand species mines in leaves. Imago 

 with fore wings elongate, pointed. Stenoplieriia, Low., is a generic 

 synonym.
