Records. Amsel, 1933: 124; Amsel, 1935c: 262; Bodenheimer 1937: 100.

Remarks. We did not examine material of this species from Israel, and we do not know the identity of the specimens referred to above by Amsel and Bodenheimer. At that time the genus Metzneria was unrevised, and several species have since been described from the Mediterranean area and from the Middle East. We therefore consider the occurrence of M. metzneriella as doubtful and remove this species from the list of Israeli Gelechiidae until it can be confirmed.
