	Ochrodia Subdiminutella ''Ephysteris subdiminutella'' is a moth of the family Gelechiidae. It is a widely distributed species, it is known from northern and southern Africa, from Egypt to South Africa, Australia, Palestine, India, Pakistan and Afghanistan. It is also found in the Galápagos Islands.Landry, B., Roque-Albelo, L. (2010) The Gelechiidae (Lepidoptera) of the Galápagos Islands, Ecuador, a taxonomic revision. Revue Suisse de Zoologie 117(4): 697-770 Known host plants of the larvae of this species include Balanitaceae ('' Balanites aegyptiaca''), Zygophyllaceae (''Zygophyllum album'') and Rhamnaceae The Rhamnaceae are a large family of flowering plants, mostly trees, shrubs, and some vines, commonly called the buckthorn family. Rhamnaceae is included in the order Rosales. The family contains about 55 genera and 950 species. The Rhamnaceae h ... ('' Zizyphus'' sp.).

	Ephysteris __NOTOC__ ''Ephysteris'' is a genus of the twirler moth family (biology), family (Gelechiidae). Among these, it is assigned to tribe (biology), tribe Gnorimoschemini of the subfamily Gelechiinae. Even though it is a rather diverse and widespread group, most of these small and inconspicuous moths were overlooked by scientists until the early 20th century. Almost 90 species are known today but new ones are still being discovered. These moths typically have forewing veins 2 and 3 separate but veins 6-8 originating from a common stalk. Somewhat less characteristically, their labial palp, labial palps have a pointed tip and a furrow on the second segment. ''Ochrodia'' and ''Opacopsis'' were initially established as subgenera of ''Ephysteris'' but elevated to full genus status later. However, this is not universally accepted and both are included in the present genus here. ''Microcraspedus'' is another subgenus of ''Ephysteris'', to which many of the European species are assigned; ''Ech ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]

It was described by Anthonie Johannes Theodorus Janse Dr Anthonie Johannes Theodorus Janse, also known as Antonius Johannes Theodorus Janse and by other orthographic variations, was a pioneer of South African entomology who specialised in Lepidoptera.

picture info	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 ...
