A striking species unlike anything else in the Olethreutidae. I 

 have not been able to examine the genitalia but have little doubt of 

 the generic position. The species appears to be rare. There is a 

 single male (without abdomen) from Colorado in the American 

 Museum and a female from Colorado (" Dyar and Caudell, Coll. no. 

 17883 ") in the National Collection.

Riley's type material is in the National Collection and consists of 

 three females rather than two as stated in his description. One of 

 these from Wisconsin (Barlow) and not mentioned in his descrip- 

 tion is labeled in his own handwriting " Paedisca giganteana Riley, 

 Type."
