Choricymoza sequoiae Bliven, 1955: 12
Type locality: USA, California.
Host plant: Likely to be Rubus sp.
Remarks: Remarks: Burckhardt and Lauterer (1997) posited that this species may be conspecific with Phylloplecta rubicola (recorded from Washington). Further examination and comparison of the type specimens is needed to confirm this. There is also a close resemblance to P. occidentalis.
