Abstract

Morphological characters traditionally utilized to separate the olethreutine genera Eucosma Hübner, Pelochrista Lederer, Epiblema Hübner, and Sonia Heinrich are discussed along with three eucosmine species for which these characters fail to unambiguously determine a generic placement. Eucosma aquilana, sp. n., and Epiblema alba, sp. n., are described from southeastern United States, and Sonia fulminana (Walsingham) is reviewed and transferred to Epiblema comb. n.
