Type 1 Tinea miscella S-D. (Sircom 1848). 



LoPHOPTiLUS Sircom Zool. 6 2087 (1848). 



1 (Type) miscellus S-D. (= siaintoni Sircom). 



Stn. NH. Tin. 11 142-3 (1870). [_vide Stn. [.is. Br. Lp-Tin. PI. 7-8 ^-'^J. 



Herrich-Schaffer [SB. Schm. Eur. 5 13, 48, 214] and Heinematin 



[Sehm. Deutsch. Tin. 430-2] referred miscella SD. to Tnhenna Ub., 



but this is not congeneric with any of the original types of Tebenna, 



and was included by Hiibner in Tichotripis Hb. (Ty[)e cliaerophyll- 



ella Goeze). 



Tebenna Hb. (Type comhinella Hb.) and Mompha Hb. (Type caesiella 



Hb.) are both congeneric with Swanimerdamia Hb. (Type lieroldella 



Hb.). 



Type 2 Elachista idaei Z, (HS. 1853). 



Cyphophora HS. SB. Schm. Eur. 5 12, 46 no. 77 PI. 13-7-9 (1853).

 pleiella HS. PI. 13-24). 



2 linneella CI., HS. PI. 1323. 



Herrich-Schaffer's explanation of his figures 22-24 is erroneous. The 

 EW. neuration (22) is not that of linneella CI., which has only four 

 free terminal veins (2-5), vein 6, when not obsolete, being out of 7, 

 beyond 8 : schrankella Hb. has 2-6 separate, and 7 and 8 stalked, 

 as figured (22), and should be regarded as the ty})e for it agrees with 

 the description of the palpi and neuration (the variation noted " oder 

 6 + 7" refers to linneella CI.). The figure of the palpus (23) re- 

 presents linneella CI., — schrankella Hb., lias a shorter terminal 

 joint as described.
