Abstract
The functional morphology of the male genitalia of Holcophora statices Stgr., Nothris verbascella (Den. et Schiff.) and Ananarsia lineatella (Zell.) is described. The genus Holcophora Hbn. is placed into the tribe Gelechiini based on the peculiarities of the skeleton-muscular apparatus of the male genitalia. Ananarsia Ams. is treated as a separate genus owing to a complex of differences from the genus Anarsia Zell. in skeleton-muscular apparatus of the male genitalia. The relationships between Nothris Hbn. and the tribe Chelariini is confirmed by characters of the functional morphology of the male genitalia.
