Similar Species: Pinned specimens of related species. (Hint: select View by Region on the related species page.) Synonymy: albifasciella Fernald, 1904 (Kearfottia) - MONA 1983: 0319 albafasciella Forbes, 1923 (Kearfottia) missp. Taxonomic Notes: Kearfottia albifasciella Fernald, 1904 was inadvertently assigned to 300007, a P number preoccupied by D. walshella (Clemens, 1862), in Pohl & Nanz (eds.) (2023). The number has been corrected to 300007.5n. (The reassignment was needed when the concept of Dahlica was expanded to include the the former genus Siederia.)
