Lord Wulsinghani has esta))lishcd the .synononiy rholff'Hctella= 

 ochreocoHtcUd^ and suggested that am^omMn Zeller was also this species. 

 I have seen the types in the Museum of Comparative Zoology of 

 qaadrimacvldla Chambers, conmneUa Zeller, and ocJireocoxteJIa Cham- 

 bers, and in U. S. National Museum there is a type (No. 461) of (tchrc- 

 ocostelhi and specimens named by Walsingham, rholfnccteJIa. All of 

 these specimens are identical and confirm Lord Walsingham's synon- 

 oniy, adding that of quadrinuicidella Chambers, as was to be expected 

 from the description of the species. 



Both of Chambers' species as well as Zeller's type came from Texas. 

 Clemens presumably reared his in Pennsylvania. 



The other species named by Chambers (jwidrinutoilelld and after- 

 wards Yenamedj}/'aiu'no/j)meUa, is evidently an entirely different insect, 

 Avhich T have recognized as a species of (rdec/t/\/, under which genus it 

 is treated (p. 875).

Lord Walsingham made this species a synon}^!! of Gelecliia conclu- . 

 sella Walker, but this was clearly caused by a mistake. The sup- 

 posed type of crescentifasciella from Mr. GoodelPs collection, on the 

 strength of which Walsingham made the sjmonomy, is now in Pro- 

 fessor Fernald's collection, and he has explained that by mistake this 

 specimen was represented as the type, but that it really was not 

 authentic. It is a specimen of conclnsella Walker. In Lord AVal- 

 singhani\s notebook^ is written under the nimiber corresponding to his 

 blue label on this specimen ''1034, G. conclusella Walker= G. cresceti- j 

 tifasciella^ Chambers's type." but the word "type" was afterwards | 

 crossed over. 



In the U. S. National Museum there is a type (No. 446) received from 

 Chambers with his handwriting ei'eseentifasciella. This type is the
