Scrobipalpopsis Tetradymiella
''Scrobipalpopsis tetradymiella'' is a moth in the family Gelechiidae. It was described by August Busck in 1903. It is found in North America, where it has been recorded from California, Arizona and Nevada. The wingspan is 15.5–20 mm. The forewings are whitish, evenly and thickly overlaid with gray and fuscous scales giving the species a pepper and salt appearance. Toward the apex, the veins are slightly indicated by nearly unsprinkled whitish thin lines, with their interspaces rather more overlaid with dark scales than the rest of the wing. The hindwings are nearly transparent, light gray with silvery reflections. The larvae feed on ''Tetradymia canescens ''Tetradymia argyraea'' is a species of flowering plant in the aster family known by the common names spineless horsebrush and gray horsebrush.

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 While these figures are certainly outdated, due to the many revisions to superfamily Gelechioidea and new descriptions of twirler moths, they still serve to show the enormous biodiversity contained in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 ...
