Gelechioidea
__NOTOC__ Gelechioidea (from the type genus ''Gelechia'', "keeping to the ground") is the superfamily of moths that contains the case-bearers, twirler moths, and relatives, also simply called curved-horn moths or gelechioid moths. It is a large and poorly understood '"micromoth" superfamily, constituting one of the basal lineages of the Ditrysia.Robinson ''et al.'' (1994), Hodges (1999), O'Toole (2002) As of the 1990s, this superfamily was composed of about 1,425 genera and 16,250 species. It was estimated that only 25% of the species diversity of Gelechioidea had been described. If this estimate is accurate, Gelechioidea will be one of the largest superfamilies of Lepidoptera. The name "curved-horn moths" refers to one of the few conspicuous features found in (almost) all Gelechioidea, and, at least in the more extreme developments, unique to them: the labial palps are well-developed (though not thickened), and form more or less gently curved protrusions whose end has a draw ...

Erysiptila
''Erysiptila'' is a genus of moths in the family Depressariidae. It contains only one species, ''Erysiptila clevelandi'', which is found in Panama and Costa Rica. 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 18 mm. The forewings are white, irregularly mottled with grey and with a suffused blackish-fuscous triangular patch extending on the costa from near the base to three-fifths, and reaching half across wing. There are two tufts of scales beneath this on the end of the cell and a few scattered black scales towards the dorsum in the middle. There is also a black dot in the disc towards the apex, and a smaller one on the termen beneath it. The hindwings are grey, suffused darker posteriorly.
