Luquetia

Luquetia is a moth genus of the superfamily Gelechioidea. It is mostly placed in the subfamily Depressariinae, which is often – particularly in older treatments – considered a distinct family Depressariidae or included in the Elachistidae, but actually seems to belong in the Oecophoridae.^[1]
