Moved to Euhyponomeutoides gracilariella
Moved from
Yponomeutoidea
.
Tentative ID. Matches Landry BOLD sample ID:
CNCLEP00027212
. That speciemen is from North Carolina. It is in
BOLD:AAI5130
and is nested in the taxon tree between examples from the north west.

Possibly undescribed
This may be undescribed. It is out of range and far from the type locality, Kaslo, BC. I think that
BOLD:ACD3350
, a BIN with specimens identified as
gracilariella
from the Northwest, may be true
gracilariella
.
BOLD:AAI5130
is near BOLD:ACD3350 and could itself represent two good species given that specimens within are separated both geographically and by DNA barcode. But this is all speculation. Until we get clarity on this group, I think we should go with Landry's ID at least for now.

Might this be another Euhyponomeutoides?

Maybe
The head looks different to me, more like
Ypsolopha
or
Argyresthia
. I did a quick browse and found a possibility that I'll post on the submission page.

It looks like a good match for Euhyponomeutoides ribesiella
The only problem is it's a European species.

Maybe
Euhyponomeutoides ribesiella
along with
gracilariella
is described by Busck as a new species in 1904, references
here
. The type is from British Columbia. I don't understand because it was previously described in 1900 by Joannis,
here
, as a new species. They both feed on
Ribes
so maybe it's two differnt species that got the same name by luck.
BOLD:ACC2642
contains samples from across Canada from New Brunswick to Alberta. This BIN is
Euhyponomeutoides ribesiella's
nearest neighbor at a little over 3% vs
gracilariella
at a little over 5%. Unfortunately, there are no useful images. At 3%, it probably is a distinct species. The match for the Landry image of
gracilariella
, CNCLEP00027212, looks better than than for
ribesiella
so I guess I'll leave it there for now.
Maybe BOLD:ACC2642 is what Busck was calling
ribesiella
. He mentions that
ribesiella
may be a variety of
gracilariella
which also feeds on
Ribes
.
Edit -
Euhyponomeutoides ribesiella
(Joannis, 1900), is a different species from Europe. Note second "i" in spelling.
Zelleria ribesella
Busck, 1904 was synonymized with
Euhyponomeutoides ribesiella
.
