no. 1644. REVISION OF (ECOPHOBID MOTHS— BUSCK. 207 



Through a mistake of the paging, Doctor Dyar supposed that this 

 texanella Chambers was preoccupied by Ethmia texanella (selleriella 

 Chambers), and gave it in his list the new name cha/nbcr.sella, which 

 thus was unnecessary and becomes a synonym of Gelechla {Anesychia) 

 texanella Chambers. But on discovering his mistake as to the paging 

 and after correcting it," Doctor Dyar continued : 



I have a single specimen without label, which I attribute to this species, but 

 which may possibly not be the same. If not, the name chambersella can be 

 used for it. 



And he then gives a description of it and a type number in the U. S. 

 National Museum. 



This latter chambersella Dyar is neither an Ethmia nor Gelechia 

 {Anesychia) texanella Chambers, but is a Gelechiid, referable to the 

 genus Durrantia Busck. The name thus being preoccupied, it may be 

 known as Durrantia obiterella, new name, with the synonym Ethmia 

 chambersella Dyar (not Dyar), and the type is Cat. No. 6025, 

 U.S.N.M.
