Actually the species in question is (insofar as I am able to ascertain)
now correctly know as Chrysoclista linneella. I'm not sure of what the
current systematics of the group is (perhaps someone better informed than
I can inform me) but the Agonoxenidae appear to have been seperated from
the Glyphipterigidae.
