[Walker's types are male and female. The locality 

 Para is a mistake; the insects were purchased from 

 Argent's collection, and are labelled " Sidney." Other 

 specimens stand in the British Museum collection under 

 the MS. name " Pegella cegeriella " ; these are labelled 

 " Australia." This species is identical with Eretmocera ? 

 sesioides, F. & E., also from Sydney. Wlsm.]

The only knowledge I have of this species is from the 

 published figure; the shape and general appearance 

 seem to indicate its near alliance to Snellenia lineata, 

 Wlk. I should propose to include it provisionally at 

 least in this genus.
