I nave seen no ? , and only 1 <? , in Fitch's collection, 

 which was named by Reinhard. Ratzeburg reared the 

 species in some numbers from Recurvaria leucatella, 

 Clercli ; and Hofmann, at Stuttgart, from Atemelia 

 torquatella, Lien.

Black ; palpi at the apex, 4 anterior femora at the apex some- 

 times, their tibiae wholly or at the base, and hind tibiae at the base, 

 testaceous. Wings hyaline, stigma dark fuscous, nervures paler 

 but distinct, except the base of the radius. Mesothorax minutely 

 punctulate and, with the scutellum, shining. Metathorax slightly 

 rugulose, or smooth. Segment 1 a little longer than broad, with 

 parallel sides, broadlj' truncate, punctulate, smooth at the base ; 

 2 shorter than 3, and like the rest, smooth, sericeous, iridescent. 

 Terebra ^ abdomen, nearly straight ; valves clavate. ^ $ Length,

This species must be distinguished from riminctorum, 

 Wesm., which has the 1st segment narrower, and 

 attenuated towards the apex; and the 2d segment
