Forewings : 2 from before of lower margin of cell, 9 

 separate. Hindwings : lower median vein hairy towards base. 

 Uncus not developed. 



A very extensive family, mainly characteristic of temperate 

 regions of the Northern hemisphere ; elsewhere it is less 

 numerous than the Tortricidae. The species are all small or 

 rather small. Forewings with central fascia oblique, running 

 from about middle of costa to dorsum before tornus ; ocellus 

 normally well-defined ; costal patch undefined. 



The genera are rather ill -defined, the more important 

 structural characters being very uniform ; hence it is necessary 

 to utilise slighter points in some instances. The phylogeny 

 is correspondingly difficult, for where all are so closely con- 

 nected, it is hard to determine which are most nearly allied. 

 It is indicated for the principal genera in the diagram.
