Possibly Heliothela spp./?

Heliothela rests with the wings in a triangular shape. Blastobasis rest with the wings parallel.

4370998 and 4370454 are the same species and the palpi show they are Gelechioidea. I don't think they match any Blastobasis, and am sceptical that the tropical genus Eretmocera would turn up here, although 4370998 shows thickened antennae reminiscent of Eretmocera. The two records aren't like any other Scythrididae.

I've learned there is a local species of Eretmocera, and this may be it. There are three others of thesame in unidentified Gelechioidea

OK, well done. Do we create an Eretmocera (genus) category?

Yes, I'll check more at ANIC when I can
