COLEOPHORA Zeller. 
Proc. Acad, ISTat. Sci. Jan. 1860, p, 4. 
Wings with long cilia. Hind wings very narrow, lanceolate. The 
subcostal vein is attenuated towards the base of the wing and near the 
middle of the wing divides into two branches. The median vein runs 
near the inner margin of the wing and divides into two short branches. 
The discoidal vein, often indistinct, is simple and free. 
The fore wings are lanceolate, often nearly caudulate. The discoi¬ 
dal cell is closed, long and narrow. The subcostal vein is rather re¬ 
mote from the costa and throws off from the cell three branches to the 
exterior margin, and two to the tip of the wing from the exterior end 
of the cell, sometimes a furcate branch. The median vien gives off 
two very short branches from its extreme end to the inner margin be¬ 
hind the tip. The submedian has a long fork at its base. 
Head above and in front smooth. No ocelli. Antennse sometimes 
thickened ivitli scales to the middle^ generally slender, simple, basal joint 
elongated, frequently with a tuft of hair. Labial palpi slender, rather 
porrected, with a slender prolonged tuft from the second joint, the third 
joint pointed. Tongue scaled, about as long as the anterior coxse or a 
little longer. 
The larva is a case bearer, changing to a pupa within the case. 
Antennal stalk simple., basal joint tufted. 
C. leucochrysella. —Fore wings immaculate white, slightly tinted with yel¬ 
lowish at the extreme apex. Cilia yellowish-white. Hind wings dark fuscous, 
cilia the same. Antennse annulated with black and white. Head and labial 
palpi white. Feet annulated with white and brownish. 
Taken on wing in the latter part of July. 
Antennal stalk simple, basal joint not tufted. 
C. concolorella. —The entire insect is of a uniform, rather dark yellow-ochre- 
ous color. 
Taken on wing, 13th of June. A single specimen. 
I have other species belonging to this genus, but as they are not in 
perfect condition, I forbear to describe them.

simple. The discal vein, free, central and two-branched. The median 
vein simple.
