The Proceedings series, begun in 1878, is intended primarily as a medium for the pub- lication of original papers, based on the collections of the National Museum, that set forth newly acquired facts in biology, anthropology, and geology, with descriptions of new forms and revisions of limited groups. Copies of each paper, in pamphlet form, are distributed as published to libraries and scientific organizations and to specialists and others interested in the different subjects. The dates at which these separate papers are published are recorded in the table of contents of each of the volumes. The series of Bulletins, the first of which was issued in 1875, contains separate publica- tions comprising monographs of large zoological groups and other general systematic treatises (occasionally in several volumes), faunal works, reports of expeditions, catalogs of type specimens, special collections, and other material of similar nature. The majority of the volumes are octavo in size, but a quarto size has been adopted in a few instances. In the Bulletin series appear volumes under the heading Contributions from the United States Na- tional Herbarium, in octavo form, published by the National Museum since 1902, which contain papers relating to the botanical collections of the Museum. The present work forms No. 207 of the Bulletin series. RemMIncron KELLoae, Director, United States National Museum.

It is based chiefly on the collections in the United States National Museum and the Hulst collection, formerly at Rutgers University, supplemented by material from the Cornell and Canadian national collections and specimens— mostly tropical American—from the British Museum, the Janse collection, and the collections of several South American lepidopterists. Recognized and included in the classification are 194 genera, 619 species, and 21 subspecies (local races). Of these, 60 genera, 81 species, and 8 races are described as new. The new species and races represent only a fraction of the undescribed material examined. The remainder consists mostly of females, chiefly from trop- ical America and without authentically associated males or host plants. Their description would have added nothing to our scientific knowledge and the additional names would have been only a nuisance to other workers. Already too many names have been given such material. Acknowledgments A work of this kind could not be carried through without generous assistance from other entomologists. To each of them I owe a debt of gratitude: To Carl Muesebeck, Chief of the Division of Insect Investi- gation of the U. S. Bureau of Entomology and Plant Quarantine, for his support and encouragement at all stages of the project; toB. B. Pepper, State Entomologist of New Jersey, and John B. Schmitt for permission to examine the genitalia of the Hulst types and for their courtesies to me at Rutgers University; to J. Bourgogne of the Muséum d’Histoire Naturelle, Paris, for the privilege of studying the genitalia of the Ragonot types of American species; to N. D. Riley and to W. H. T. Tams for the loan of unidentified tropical American Phycitinae from the British Museum (Natural History) and to Tams especially for photographs of many types and their genitalia; to Martin Herring of the Zoologisches Museum der Universitat, Berlin, for the loan of Ragonot types; to W. T. M. Forbes, Department of Entomology, Cornell University, for the loan of his extensive collections from Puerto Rico, the Virgin Is- lands, and Surinam; to J. McDunnough and T. N. Free- man, Canadian National Museum, Ottawa, for the loan of Canadian specimens; to A.J.T.Janse of the Transvaal Museum, Pretoria, South Africa, for the loan of South American Phycitinae from his collection and for much valuable information; to A. da Costa-Lima, Escola Nacional de Agronomia, Universidad Rural, Distrito Federal, Brazil, for the loan of Brazilian specimens; to Frank Morton Jones for a gift of Phycitinae collected at Martha’s Vineyard, Mass.; to John A. Comstock for a loan of southern California specimens; to my colleagues at the U. S. National Museum—to J. F. Gates Clarke, for extensive notes on the phycitid types in the Museums of Paris, London, Oxford, and Berlin, and to Hahn Capps, for assistance in the tedious business of slide preparations. My greatest debt is to the artists of the Bureau of Entomology and Plant Quarantine for the drawings ac- companying this paper. Where genitalia are used in in- sect classification verbal descriptions are not enough. Figures must accompany and supplement them to give the reader a true picture of structural characters. The drawings in this paper were begun in 1930 by Eleanor A. Carlin and continued by her until October 30, 1940, when she retired from the Bureau. From that time the drawings were made by Sara H. De Bord, who has made the majority of the drawings here published. Her con- tribution was of especial value because she was not only a capable artist but a trained entomologist as well, and her interest in the paper and her devotion to her share in it was so complete that she worked well on into her last illness (she was retired on disability August 12, 1948, and died March 12, 1950). Since her death some drawings were made by Arthur Cushman and Addie Egbert, and the former did most of the assembling of the plates. The drawings were all made under my supervision and for any inaccuracies in them I am alone responsible. The indices were prepared by Mrs. Marguerite W. Poole. Abbreviation of references To conserve space and eliminate useless repetition, titles to certain publications frequently cited are here abbreviated as follows: The Ragonot ‘‘Monographie des Phycitidae et des Galleriidae,” published as vol. 7 (1893) and vol. 8 (1901, completed by Hampson) of the Romanoff “Mémoires sur les Lépidoptéres,”’ is cited as ‘‘Mono- graph, pt. 1,” or “Monograph, pt. 2.” Ragonot’s ‘“‘Diagnoses of North American Phycitidae and Galleriidae,” 1887, is cited as ‘‘N. Amer. Phyciti- dae,” and his ‘‘Nouveau Genera et Espéces de Phyci- tidae et Galleriidae,” 1888, as ‘‘Nouv. Gen.” Walker’s ‘List of the Specimens of Lepidopterous Insects in the Collections of the British Museum,” 1854-66, is cited as “‘List.” Hulst’s ‘‘The Phycitidae of North America,’”’ pub- lished in the Transactions of the American Entomologi- v VI INTRODUCTION cal Society, vol. 17, pp. 93-228, pls. 6-8, March—July 1890, is cited as “‘Phycitidae of N. Amer.” Barnes and McDunnough, “Contributions to the Natural History of the Lepidoptera of North America,” vols. 2 (1913-1914) and 3 (1916-1917), is cited as “Contributions.” McDunnough’s “Check List of the Lepidoptera of Canada and the United States of America, Part II, Microlepidoptera,” published in the Memoirs of the Southern California Academy of Science, vol. 2, No. 1, 1939, is cited as ‘Check list.” Forbes’s ‘‘Lepidoptera of New York and Neighboring States,” Cornell University Agricultural Experiment Station Memoir 68, 1923, is cited as ‘Cornell Mem. 68.” The distributional records for species in this paper are obviously incomplete. They are based (with a few exceptions noted in the text) solely on specimens I have examined. This was the only safe procedure. So many misidentifications have been made in the past, even by lepidopterists of repute, that the records in literature can not be accepted merely on the authority of an author. Unless the specimens upon which his statements were based can be examined and the state- ments themselves verified, it is best to ignore them. By taking them simply on faith and repeating them we not only run the risk of perpetuating error, but do an injustice to past workers who did not have or could not use the evidence available to us. This caution applies with even greater force to “accepted” generic and specific synonymy. J have been very fortunate in being able to examine the genitalia of so many holotypes and in having authentic specimens of most of the type species of described genera occurring in the New World. All unqualified synonymy in this paper is based upon genitalic examination of such material. From the synonymy of some species common to both the New and Old Worlds I have omitted some names—chiefly of Old World synonyms—because I could not examine their types and had no certainty as to correctness of their synonymizing. Such omissions are discussed in the text. Classification and arrangement A general revision has a twofold purpose, a taxonomic and a practical one: To define accurately, to delineate as nicely as possible, and to name categories which, as far as our knowledge permits, represent objective realities in nature; and to arrange these categories in an order that permits their ready identification. Both purposes must be served if the revision is to have any value as a contribution to knowledge or to be of practical use to other workers. To satisfy both requirements I have adopted in this paper a dual classification: a definition and division into named categories of races, species, genera and subfamilies; and an artificial, unnamed division, between genus and subfamily, into groups of genera or, in a few instances within a single genus, into groups of species. The named categories themselves are more or less tentative. They are not adequate expressions of the truth. They are only approximations to it. As we learn more we shall have to amend or replace our defini- tions and the categories will come a little closer to the realities they represent. The names (except for homonyms) will always be available; but the concepts will change. There are several indications that taxo- nomic groupings between genus and subfamily may eventually be possible; and that when we have a clearer picture of host relations and larval characters, and more extensive collections from unexplored regions, we may be able to establish tribes on a legitimate taxonomic basis; but at present this is impossible. What few definite derivations we can trace from genus to genus show that tribal groupings would cut across the lines of any artificial system we might be able to use. The artificial system here adopted (based on vena- tional characters) is proposed merely for key purposes. The keys themselves, except for the one separating the subfamilies, are in no true sense a part of the taxonomic system. They are keys, and keys only. They are intended merely to open a ready way to the descriptions of the genera and have been constructed on the assump- tion that they must work for all normal specimens. I hope so, for a key that will unlock a door only 75 (or even 90) percent of the time is a tool of little worth. Here, a word of caution. No possible key will work for abnormal specimens. The worker in Phycitidae must be always on the alert for them, for the family contains an unusual number of freaks (chiefly vena- tional abnormalities). Any one wishing to identify phycitids must resign himself to the tedium of dissection and slide making. Here, as in all the serious business of science, there is no easy way, no short cut to knowledge. The groupings of genera and species, prefaced by brief summaries of their common characters, which I have interposed within the text, are intended only to assist the reader and are not.to be understood, in any sense, as definitions of taxonomic (tribal or subgeneric) groups. In a few instances they may be; but they are, in intent, only divisions of convenience. The only portion of the keys offered as a description of taxonomic units is that separating the subfamilies Anerastiinae and Phycitinae. This long-established division of the family Phycitidae seems to be a sound one, and in the main the subfamilies themselves appear to be natural entities, although their definition leaves much to be desired. Probably when the Anerastiinae are thoroughly studied we may find other features more constant than the reduced and concealed tongue. There may even be some shifting of genera across the subfamily lines. However, this is only hopeful antici- pation for the future and will remain so until the Old World genera and species of the family are thoroughly revised. For the present we shall have to content ourselves with an imperfect definition. The chart opposite this page shows my interpretation of the genera in their relation to each other and to the system based on venational characters.

It is only an attempt and I shall quarrel with no one who objects to it. When I began this study I had hoped to write a monographic treatise and explore the phylogeny of the family, but I now find that I know so much less than I thought I did and that the accumulated knowledge of others is so meager that any attempt along these lines would be & vain and futile performance. We don’t know what a primitive phycitid was like. We don’t know which forms evolved from which, or how. We weren’t there. We may surmise; but the guess of one ignoramus is as good as that of another, and there is nothing to be gained from either. I have had to be content with a mere revision. Would that it were more worthy. Cari HEINRICH Carl Heinrich (1880-1955) This monograph was written by Carl Heinrich in the months following his retirement from Government service in 1949. Upon it he focus>! the extensive knowledge gained during his 36 years as entomologist with the U. S. Department of Agriculture. Its publication, toward which the Department of Agriculture has contributed substantially, was undertaken in 1954, and the author had completed his review of the galley proofs at the time of his death, age 75, on May 31, 1955. A biographical memoir of Car] Heinrich and a bibliography of his scientific writings appeared in the Proceedings of the Entomological Society of Washington for October 1955 (vol. 57, No. 5, pp- 249-255).
