@ibaird Hi Ian. I think there are some problems with the definitions of some of the Agriophara species. Some seem to be doubled up and also many of them say "concealer moth" and they are under Curved-horn moths and not Oecophoridae like I think they should be. They should probably be moved to Oecophoridae. Can you have a look at this? Thanks.

AFD have transferred Stenomatinae to Depressariidae, so Agriophara is no longer in Oecophoridae.

If that's the case Don and Ian, we should not call them "a concealer moth", I think. Also, before I wrote the previous message, I checked ALA and they are under Oecophoridae on ALA :-o
