Abstract
A checklist of Gelechiidae in America north of Mexico is provided based on additions of new taxa and nomenclatorial
changes in publications since 1978. This checklist includes the addition of 253 new species and 8 new genera, 30 species
and 5 genera previously unrecorded from North America, 4 species inadvertently omitted in the previous checklist, and
many nomenclatorial changes. Ymeldia Hodges, 1963 is transferred to Oecophoridae. The following new synonymies
are established: Neoschema Povolny, 1967, n. syn. of Gnorimoschema Busck, 1900; Scrobipalpulopsis Povolný, 1987, n.
syn. of Scrobipalpula Povolný; 1964, Tuta Kieffer & Jörgensen, 1910, rev. syn. of Phthorimaea Meyrick, 1902;
Eupolella Fletcher, 1940, n. syn. of Dichomeris Hübner, [1818]; Eupolis Meyrick, 1923, n. syn. of Dichomeris Hübner,
[1818]; Aristotelia nigrobasiella Clarke, 1932, n. syn. of Aristotelia isopelta Meyrick, 1929; Aristotelia intermediella
(Chambers, 1879), n. syn. of Aristotelia pudibundella (Zeller, 1873); Gelechia brumella Clemens, 1864, n. syn. of
Chionodes continuella (Zeller, 1839); Anacampsis bidiscomaculella (Chambers, 1874), rev. syn. of Anacampsis
fullonella (Zeller, 1873); Aroga trachycosma (Meyrick, 1923), n. syn. of Aroga elaboratella (Braun, 1923); and
Dichomeris caryaefoliella (Chambers, 1872), n. syn. of Dichomeris georgiella (Walker, 1866). The following new
combinations are made: Monochroa pullusella (Chambers, 1874), n. comb., Monochroa robusta (Braun, 1921), n. comb.,
Gnorimoschema klotsi (Povolný, 1967), n. comb., Gnorimoschema powelli (Povolný, 1998a), n. comb.,
Scrobipalpuloides chiquitella (Busck, 1910), n. comb., Scrobipalpuloides chiquitelloides (Powell & Povolný, 2001), n.
comb., Scrobipalpuloides elaborata (Povolný, 2000), n. comb., Scrobipalpuloides insularis (Powell & Povolný, 2001) n.
comb., Scrobipalpuloides isolata (Povolný, 2000) n. comb., Scrobipalpuloides spinosa (Povolný, 2000), n. comb.,
Scrobipalpuloides totalis (Povolný, 2000), n. comb., Scrobipalpuloides truncata (Povolný, 2000), n. comb.,
Scrobipalpula lutescella (Clarke, 1934), n. comb., Scrobipalpula lycii (Powell & Povolný, 2001), n. comb.,
Scrobipalpula physaliella (Chambers, 1872), n. comb., and Scrobipalpa arenaceariella (Powell & Povolný, 2001), n.
comb. New records for the Nearctic Region are given for Carpatolechia fugitivella (Zeller), Carpatolechia notatella
(Hübner), Carpatolechia proximella (Hübner), and Altenia perspersella (Wocke). This checklist also provides the type
localities of species based on examination of specimens and published references. Subfamilies have been divided into
tribes, which has required rearrangement of genera. References that include new taxa or nomenclatorial changes since
1978 are provided.

Introduction
The Gelechiidae include species that are pests of agriculture and forestry as well as species of biological and
ecological interest. A checklist of gelechiid species is critical for providing the current valid names for use by
USDA-APHIS and state agencies for regulating pest species, by professional and amateur lepidopterists
conducting faunal surveys, and by researchers involved in systematics, community ecology, and other
biological studies. The most recent checklist of Gelechiidae in America north of Mexico included 631 species
in 91 genera based on literature published through 1978 (Hodges, 1983). Pohl (2006) provided an on-line
checklist that included 855 species in 94 genera. This revised checklist includes 886 species in 92 genera.
Since the last checklist (Hodges, 1983), 253 new species have been added. Of them, 159 species were
described in Dichomeridinae (Hodges, 1986) and Chionodes (Hodges, 1999), and 82 species were described
in Gnoroschemini (Povolný, 1985, 1998a,b,c,d, 1999a,b, 2000, 2003; Powell & Povolný, 2001). The
descriptions of these new species and others, along with numerous new synonyms, new combinations, various
nomenclatorial changes, and additions of species previously known only from the Palearctic Region have
necessitated the need for a new checklist of Gelechiidae in America north of Mexico. Beyond these additions
and changes, the genus Tayg e t e has been transferred to Autostichidae (Landry, 2002), and Ymeldia is
transferred here to Oecophoridae. New nomenclatorial changes made in this checklist are based on notes of
the second author (RWH) from his examinations of types and personal communication with Klaus Sattler
(2009).
Four species previously known only from the Palearctic Region are reported here as new records for the
Nearctic Region, all of which were collected by J.-F. Landry in Canada. Altenia perspersella (Wocke): Yukon
Territory, Whitehorse, Gray Mtn summit, 1400-1500 m, 60.6748°N, 134.9036°W, 14 Jul 2006 (with G. Pohl).
Carpatolechia fugitivella (Zeller): Quebec, Aylmer, 48 rue du Couvent, 80 m, 45.3967°N, 75.849°W, 13 Jun
2001, 16–20 Jul 2004, 13–25 Jun 2005, 26 Jun 2006, 12 Jun–1 Jul 2007. Carpatolechia notatella: Ste-
Agathe, lac Brûlé, 80 m, 46.0881°N, 74.2788°W, 3 Jul 2004. Carpatolechia proximella (Hübner): Quebec,
Aylmer, 48 rue du Couvent, 80 m, 45.3967°N, 75.849°W; Gatineau Park, Luskville Falls picnic area,
45.5333°N, 75.9955°W, 10 Jun 2005; Rougement, 14 Jun 2004; Ste-Agathe, lac Brûlé, 80 m, 46.0881°N,
74.2788°W, 26 Jun 2001, 25 Jun–4 Jul 2003, 26 Jun–4 Jul 2004, 11 Jul 2005.
This checklist is based on that of Hodges (1983) and references published since 1978, all of which have
been examined. The arrangement of genera follows the 1983 checklist as closely as possible, but the
subfamilies have been divided into six tribes, following the arrangement in the checklist of the Lepidoptera of
Europe (Karsholt and Razowski, 1996). Of these tribes Litini (sensu Teleiodini) (Ponomarenko, 2005) has
been recently defined by Lee and Brown (2008), and Gnoromoschemini has been defined in a series of papers
by Povolný (1964, 1991, 2002a,b). Species in each genus are organized alphabetically. The spelling of some
species names has been changed for gender agreement. Changes from the most recent checklist (Hodges,
1983) are indicated by superscripts that refer to references cited.
