discussion
Remarks. THE SINGLE SPECIMEN COLLECTED IN CAUCASUS IS CLOSE TO Elachista cretula (fOR ILLUSTRATIONS REfER TO KAILA 2011 C: fIGS 10, 19, 20), HOWEVER, THE VALVA IS SOMEWHAT BROADER, SHORTER AND BENT, AND THE SPINOSE KNOB Of GNATHOS APPEARS SHORTER AND WIDER. IT MAY REPRESENT AN UNDESCRIBED SPECIES, BUT THE MATERIAL AVAILABLE IS TOO LIMITED fOR A SAfE IDENTIfICATION.
