Genus AMBESA Grote (1) Ambesa laetella Grote, Plate XLVIII, Fig. 16, male. The moth is not uncommon in Colorado, Wyoming, and Utah. It is found in the sage-brush in August. Genus MELITARA Walker (1) Melitara fernaldialis Hulst, Plate XLVIII, Fig. 8, female. The insect is not at all uncommon in Arizona, and is also said to occur in Mexico. Genus ZOPHODIA Hubner (1) Zophodia grossulariae Riley. (The Gooseberry Fruit-worm.) Syn. turbitella Grote. The larva of this little moth, which is glass-green, feeds upon currants and gooseberries as they are forming upon the branches, hollowing out their interiors, and often fastening a cluster of them together with a web of silk. The berries attacked by the larvae do not generally fall to the ground, but shrivel up where they are, attached to the stalk. The caterpillars transform into pupae on the ground, under leaves and among rubbish. There is but one brood during the year. The insect is widely distributed from New England and southern Canada westward and southward into the Valley of the Ohio and the upper portions of the Mississippi Valley.
