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 Taxonomic rank, superfamily Gelechioidea, and the family's taxonomy (biology), 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 While these figures are certainly outdated, due to the many revisions to superfamily Gelechioidea and new descriptions of twirler moths, they still serve to show the enormous b ...

Pseudochelaria Scabrella
''Pseudochelaria scabrella'' is a moth of the family Gelechiidae. It was described by August Busck in 1913. It is found in North America, where it has been recorded from California, Nevada and Washington. The wingspan The wingspan (or just span) of a bird or an airplane is the distance from one wingtip to the opposite wingtip. For example, the Boeing 777–200 has a wingspan of , and a wandering albatross (''Diomedea exulans'') caught in 1965 had a wingsp ... is 17–20 mm. The forewings are irrorated brown with a large triangular dorsal patch near the base reaching with one corner to the costal edge and sharply edged posteriorly by a thin oblique white line. There is a similarly unicolored on the middle of the wing, but a more diffused larger patch, edged posteriorly by a thin, transverse, slightly concave, white line across the wing at the apical third. Both of these dark brown areas contain small tufts of raised scales in two longitudinal rows. The hindwings are lig ...

Pseudochelaria Walsinghami
''Pseudochelaria walsinghami'' is a moth of the family Gelechiidae. It was described by Dietz in 1900. It is found in North America, where it has been recorded from Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Florida, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Maine, Mississippi, Nebraska, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina and Tennessee. The wingspan is about 17 mm. The forewings are marked with dark, rich brown. The basal space is limited externally by a sharply-defined oblique line, twice as far removed from the base at the dorsal than at the costal margin, but not including the latter and a narrow space of the adjacent surface. There is a longitudinal stripe, beginning at two-fifths and extending through the middle of wing to the apex, rather sharply defined along its dorsal margin, but becoming more or less diffused with the dark shading in the costal half. A whitish fascia is found at the beginning of the apical cilia, interrupted by the longitudinal stripe and passing grad ...
