Trychnopalpa
Trychnopalpa is a monotypic moth genus in the family Gelechiidae. The only member of the genus was described by Edward Meyrick in 1913, and it was separated by Anthonie Johannes Theodorus Janse in his 1958 The Moths of South Africa. Dalibor F. Povolný gave the same member of this genus the now synonymised generic name Synthesiopalpa. The genus contains only one species, Trychnopalpa fornacaria, which is found in South Africa.
