Eucordylea, Dietz, Ent. News, Philad. Vol. 11, p. 349 (1900). — Type : E. atrofictella, Dietz. 
Characters, — Head smooth; ocelli posterior; tongueabsent. Antennae 4/5, basaljoint moderate, 
without pecten. Labial palpi very long, recurved, second joint in cf clothed above with dense expansible 
tuft of long hairs, in Q with appressed scales, terminal joint much shorter than second, moderate, acute. 
Maxillary palpi rudimentary. Posterior tibiae clothed with long rough hair-scales above. Forewings with 
small tufts of scales; ró furcate, 2 from towards angle, 3-5 closely approximated at base, 7 and 8 out of 
6, 7 to costa, 11 from beyond middle. Hindwings nearly r, trapezoidal, apex obtuse, termen bisinuate, 
cilia 2; 3-5 closely approximated from angle, 6 and 7 connate. 
Remarks, — Correlated with Recurvaría,

60. GENUS NESOLECHIA, MEYRICK 
Nesolechia, Meyrick, Exot. Microlep. Vol. 2, p. 425 (1921). is Type : N. horogramma, Meyrick. 
Characters. — Head with appressed scales, sidetufts slightly raised; ocelli small, posterior; 
tongue developed. Antennae 2/3, basal jointelongate, without pecten. Labial palpi long, recurved, second 
joint thickened with appressed scales, slightly roughened anteriorly, terminal joint longer than second, 
slender, acute. Maxillary palpi very short, filiform, appressed to tongue. Posterior tibiae clothed with 
long hairs above. Forewings with 2-5 parallel, 7 and 8 out of 6, 7 to costa, 11 from middle. Hindwings 
somewhat under r, elongate-trapezoidal, apex somewhat produced, termen sinuate, cilia 1 ; 3-5 rather 
approximated at base, 6 and 7 stalked. 
Remarks. — Whilst belonging to this neighbourhood generally, the precise affinity of this genus 
is dubious. 
Geographical distribution of species. — Polynesian. 
Larva unknown.
