57. Gelechia copiosella, Walk., Brit. Mus. Cat., 1028. 



I marked this also as probably a new species of Semiocosma . Moderate ; 

 forewings blackish, clouded and streaked with cinereous ; hindwings dark 

 fuscous. The diagnosis however describes it as black, with a silvery- white 

 discal dot. Said to be from Auckland. 



58. (Ecophora apertella, Walk., Brit. Mus. Cat., 698. 



These specimens (amongst which is mixed one of (Ec. armigerella, as I 

 believe), appeared to me, when I saw them, to be a new species of 

 (Ecophora, but I was not then well acquainted with the yellow group. 

 Less ; forewings golden-yellow, without markings ; hindwings grey. Said 

 to be from Auckland. 



59. Tingena bifaciella, Walk., Brit. Mus. Cat., 810. 



I did not identify this species, but suspect it might possibly be a yellow 

 specimen of Gymnobathra parca, Butl., in which case the name would have 

 to be adopted for the species. Butler's remarks on these species are 

 worthless ; I have seen (Ecophora macarella labelled by Butler himself as 

 his parca, but the original type of parca in the British Museum belongs 

 truly to the species which I have described under that name. 



60. (Ecophora ademptella, Walk., Brit. Mus. Cat., 698. 



The types of this I marked as a good species, probably of Gymnobathra 

 or (Ecophora. Forewings purplish-fuscous, costa yellowish except at base 

 and apex, a yellow streak along inner margin not reaching anal angle ; 

 hindwings fuscous. 



61. (Ecophora limbata, Butl., Cist. Ent., vol. ii., 560. 



I have not seen this ; probably a good species. Forewings dark fuscous, 

 costa bright yellow ; hindwings dark fuscous ; head yellow. Blenheim. 



62. Gelechia collitella, Walk., Brit. Mus. Cat., 655. 



I could not identify this type at the time. Forewings rather broad, pale 

 cinereous-fawn colour, with four discal spots and a subterminal line rising 

 from a costal spot fuscous ; hindwings light grey. I now think this might 

 refer to a variety of (Ecophora griseata. 



63. Gelechia convulsella, Walk., Brit. Mus. Cat., 656. 



Perhaps a new (Ecophora. Forewings whitish, with four irregular dark 

 grey bands, four black dots in disc, and a row along hindmargin and apical 

 fourth of costa ; hindwings grey. Said to be from Auckland. 



64. Gelechia innotella, Walk., Brit. Mus. Cat., 652. 



Quite unidentifiable, but may very possibly be (Ecophora pseudospretella. 



65. Gelechia contritella, Walk., Brit. Mus. Cat., 657. 



This appears to be some species of Trachypepla, but is so worn and 

 broken as to be absolutely unidentifiable ; moreover the description can 

 hardly be reconciled with the type, so that the name must be altogether 

 dropped.
