Telephila, Meyrick, Exot. Microlep. Vol. 2, p. 626 (1923). — Type: T. schmidiella, Heyden. 
Characters. — Head with appressed scales ; ocelli posterior ; tongue developed. Antennae 4/5, 
in cf minutely ciliated, basal joint elongate, without pecten. Labial palpi very long, recurved, second 
joint expanded with dense scales, forming a long projecting apical tuft beneath, terminal joint as long 
as second or longer, slender, acute. Maxillary palpi very short, filiform, appressed to tongue. Posterior 
tibiae rough. scaled above. Forewings with 1$ furcate, 2 and 3 stalked, 7 and 8 stalked, 7 to costa, 11 from 
middle. Hindwings 1 or somewhat over 1, trapezoidal, termen slightly sinuate, cilia 1/2-3/4; without 
cubital pecten; 3 and 4 connate, 5 somewhat approximated, 6 and 7 closely approximated towards base. 
Remarks. — Intermediate in characters between Dichomeris and Gaesa, and probably a derivative 
of the former. 
Geographical distribution of species. — European, North American, and Australian.
