Description

Fletcher's specimen, which is very important as the evidential specimen for the hostplant of Cosmopterix attenuatella (=C.flavofasciata) in his publication (1933), has not been located or subjected to modem examination. A specimen that is probably the same species as in his description has now been found among the material preserved in the Natural History Museum, London (BMNH). After careful examination of the external characters it is concluded that Fletcher's specimen is a different species from attenuatella.
