Elachista texanica Frey & Boll, 1876 View in CoL

Elachista texanica Frey & Boll, 1876: 216 View in CoL . Remarks: The original description indicates a forewing pattern with scattered yellow scales, and with an orange spot

near base of the dorsal margin, and another occupying the apical part of the forewing. This pattern is unlike any

Elachistine species. Based on this evidence E. texanica is hereby removed from Elachistinae . Current status: incertae sedis.
