GELECHIA GILVOMACULELLA Clemens. 



Gelechia r/llromaciilella Busck, Proe. I^ S. Nat. 3Ius., XXV, p. 896. 



The type of this species. Clemens' No. 290, proves it to be a true 

 GelecJda and the same as Gelechia ohninimacideJla Chambers.' This 

 name, therefore, must give way to the earlier one of Clemens. Speci- 

 mens of this species compared with both Clemens' and Chambers' types 

 are now in the U. S. National Museum. 



GELECHIA PULLIFIMBRIELLA Clemens. i 



1 

 Gelechia pullifimbrleUa BrscK, Proc. U. S. Nat. ]Mus., XXV, p. 900. | 



Clemens' type No. 191 of this species proves it to be a small, nearly j 

 unicolorous, dark fuscous Gelechia, unlike any other described species 

 known to me. Clemens' description is accurate, but the discal spots 

 he mentions are very indistinct and easily overlooked. Alar expanse, 

 12 mm. 



GELECHIA BRUMELLA Clemens. 

 Gelechia hrumella BrscK, Proc. U. S. Nat. Mas., XXV, p. 893. 



The type of this species, Clemens' No. 196, shows that the species 

 belongs to Gelechia, and that it is nearest Gelechia vemella Murt- 

 feldt.^ It is, however, a larger species, with alar expanse of 20 mm., 

 and it has a deeper brown ground color. 



GELECHIA ORNATIFIMBRIELLA Clemens. 

 Gelechia ornatifimbriella Busck, Proc. U. S. Nat. INIusi., XXV, p. 899. 



Clemens' t3'pe No. 22S proves the species to be a true Gelechia and 

 identical with Zeller's Gelechia unctulella,^ which name must be 

 dropped for the earlier ornatijimhriella. Clemens' description is very 

 poor, both imperfect and incorrect, and should not be relied on for 

 identification of the species. 



GELECHIA VIDUELLA Fabricius. 

 Gelechia lahradorieUa Busck, Proc. U. S. Nat. Mus., XXV, p. 897. 



Type No. 18(5 of Gelechia lahradorieUa is in poor condition, but 

 easily recognizable from Clemens' description. I can find no differ- 

 ences between it and authentic specimens of the European Gelechia 

 viduella Fabricius, with which it w^as tentatively made a synonym in 

 Staudinger and Rebels's Catalogue Lepidoptera Europe, No. 2618, 

 1901, and the species must be known by this much older name. 



It is a striking species of the black and white marked group, and 

 comes between Gelechia luguhrella Fabricius and albilorella Zeller,
