Aeolotrocha Generosa
''Aeolotrocha generosa'' is a species of moth in the family Gelechiidae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1921. It is found in South Africa. The wingspan The wingspan (or just span) of a bird or an airplane is the distance from one wingtip to the other wingtip. For example, the Boeing 777–200 has a wingspan of , and a wandering albatross (''Diomedea exulans'') caught in 1965 had a wingspan of ... is about 11 mm. The forewings are dark violet-grey with a broad ochreous-whitish streak along the anterior half of the costa, limited beneath by a nearly equally broad black streak, the end of the white streak produced obliquely downwards as an irregular brownish posteriorly black-edged line terminating in a small triangular black discal spot representing the second discal stigma. The anterior half of the dorsum is narrowly blackish, terminated by an oblique transverse black spot from the middle of the dorsum, followed by a spot of whitish suffusion. There is an oblique ...

Gelechiinae
Gelechiinae is a subfamily of moths in the family Gelechiidae. It was described by Henry Tibbats Stainton in 1854. Taxonomy The subfamily includes the following tribes and genera: *Litini Bruand, 1859 **'' Agnippe'' Chambers, 1872 **'' Altenia'' Sattler, 1960 **''Angustialata'' Omelko, 1988 **'' Arcutelphusa'' Lee & Brown, 2008 **'' Argyrolacia'' Keifer, 1936 **'' Arogalea'' Walsingham, 1910 **'' Carpatolechia'' Capuse, 1964 **'' Chorivalva'' Omelko, 1988 **'' Coleotechnites'' Chambers, 1880 **'' Concubina'' Omelko & Omelko, 2004 **'' Exoteleia'' Wallengren, 1881 ** ''Glauce'' Chambers, 1875 **'' Istrianis'' Meyrick, 1918 **'' Neotelphusa'' Janse, 1958 **''Parachronistis'' Meyrick, 1925 **'' Parastenolechia'' Kanazawa, 1985 **''Piskunovia'' Omelko, 1988 **'' Pragmatodes'' Walsingham, 908/small> **''Protoparachronistis'' Omelko, 1986 **'' Pseudotelphusa'' Janse, 1958 **'' Pubitelphusa'' Lee & Brown, 2013 **''Recurvaria'' Haworth, 1828 **'' Schistophila'' Chrétien, 1899 **''Sch ...

Edward Meyrick
Edward Meyrick (25 November 1854, in Ramsbury – 31 March 1938, at Thornhanger, Marlborough) was an English schoolmaster and amateur entomologist. He was an expert on microlepidoptera and some consider him one of the founders of modern microlepidoptera systematics. Life and work Edward Meyrick came from a Welsh clerical family and was born in Ramsbury on the Kennet to a namesake father. He was educated at Marlborough College and Trinity College, Cambridge. He actively pursued his hobby during his schooling, and one colleague stated in 1872 that Meyrick "has not left a lamp, a paling, or a tree unexamined in which a moth could possibly, at any stage of its existence, lie hid." Meyrick began publishing notes on microlepidopterans in 1875, but when in December, 1877 he gained a post at The King's School, Parramatta, New South Wales, there were greater opportunities for indulging his interest. He stayed in Australia for ten years (from 1877 until the end of 1886) working at Syd ...

Gelechiidae
The Gelechiidae are a family of moths commonly referred to as twirler moths or gelechiid moths. They are the namesake family of the huge and little-studied superfamily Gelechioidea, and the family's taxonomy has been subject to considerable dispute. These are generally very small moths with narrow, fringed wings. The larvae of most species feed internally on various parts of their host plants, sometimes causing galls. Douglas-fir (''Pseudotsuga'') is a host plant common to many species of the family, particularly of the genus ''Chionodes'', which as a result is more diverse in North America than usual for Gelechioidea. By the late 20th century, over 900 genera with altogether more than 4,500 species were placed here, with about 650 genera known from North America alone. While these figures are certainly outdated, due to the many revisions to superfamily Gelechioidea and new descriptions of twirler moths, they still serve to show the enormous biodiversity contained in this import ...

Taxa Named By Edward Meyrick
In biology, a taxon (back-formation from ''taxonomy''; plural taxa) is a group of one or more populations of an organism or organisms seen by taxonomists to form a unit. Although neither is required, a taxon is usually known by a particular name and given a particular ranking, especially if and when it is accepted or becomes established. It is very common, however, for taxonomists to remain at odds over what belongs to a taxon and the criteria used for inclusion. If a taxon is given a formal scientific name, its use is then governed by one of the nomenclature codes specifying which scientific name is correct for a particular grouping. Initial attempts at classifying and ordering organisms (plants and animals) were set forth in Carl Linnaeus's system in ''Systema Naturae'', 10th edition (1758), as well as an unpublished work by Bernard and Antoine Laurent de Jussieu. The idea of a unit-based system of biological classification was first made widely available in 1805 in the intro ...
