Some Recent Moth Determinations. 



BY OTTO H. SWEZEY. 



I wish to put on record for future reference the determina- 

 tions of a few moths recently made for me by Mr. August Busck 

 of the United States National Museum. 



EphesIx^ elutella Hubn. 



This is the moth referred to as Ephestiodes gilvesceiitella 

 Rag. by Mr. Kotinsky, on page 27 of Vol. II, Proc. Haw. Ent. 

 Soc. It is a bad feed warehouse and household pest, the larvae 

 feeding on all kinds of cereals and cereal products, bakery 

 goods, nuts, dried fruits, etc. 



Crocidosema lantana Busck. 



This is the Tortricid introduced from Mexico by Mr. Koe- 

 oele, to assist in the destruction of Lantana. The larvae feed 

 in the flower clusters and also on the immature fruit. It is 

 very similar to C. plchlana Z., which feeds in the buds of 

 "Ilima" and Ahutilon, and occurs in Europe, Australia, West 

 Indies, Central America and South America, as well as the Ha- 

 waiian Islands. 



Amoebia emigeatella Busck. 

 This is the larger yellowish introduced Tortricid leaf-roller,
