Anapatris is a monotypic moth genus in the family Depressariidae. Its only species, Anapatris chersopsamma, is found in Panama. Both the genus and species were described by Edward Meyrick in 1932. [1]
Copromorphidae, the "tropical fruitworm moths", is a family of insects in the lepidopteran order. These moths have broad, rounded forewings, and well-camouflaged scale patterns. Unlike Carposinidae the mouthparts include "labial palps" with the second rather than third segment the longest. With other unusual structural characteristics of the caterpillar and adult, it could represent the sister lineage of all other extant members of this superfamily. The genus Sisyroxena from Madagascar is also notable for its unusual venation and wing scale sockets.
Urodidae or "false burnet moths" is a family of moths in the lepidopteran order. It is the type genus in the superfamily, Urodoidea, with three genera, one of which, Wockia, occurs in Europe.
The Plutellidae are a family of moths commonly known as the diamondback moths, named after the diamondback moth of European origin. It was once considered to have three subfamilies: Plutellinae, Praydinae, and Scythropiinae. Praydinae was later elevated to its own family, Praydidae, while Scythropiinae has variously been moved to Yponomeutidae or also elevated to its own family.
The Archipini are a tribe of tortrix moths. Since many genera of these are not yet assigned to tribes, the genus list presented here is provisional.
Dichomeris is a genus of moths in the family Gelechiidae erected by Jacob Hübner in 1818.
Hypatima is a genus of the twirler moth family (Gelechiidae). Among these, it belongs to a distinct lineage, which is variously treated as tribe Chelariini in subfamilies Dichomeridinae, Gelechiinae, or even Pexicopiinae, and historically was considered a subfamily in its own right, Chelariinae. Of this lineage, Hypatima – under its junior synonym Chelaria – is the type genus. This genus has numerous species, but its exact limits are not quite clear. This genus occurs mainly in the Southern Hemisphere, though one of the better-known species is the only member of this genus native to Europe, the lobster-clawed moth.
Megacraspedus is a genus of moths in the family Gelechiidae, found primarily in the Palearctic.
Lecithocera is a genus of moths in the lecithocerid subfamily Lecithocerinae. The genus was erected by Gottlieb August Wilhelm Herrich-Schäffer in 1853.
Torodora is a genus of moths in the family Lecithoceridae. The genus was erected by Edward Meyrick in 1894.
Macrobathra is a genus of moths in the family Cosmopterigidae. Most species are endemic to Australia.
Erechthias is a genus of the fungus moth family, Tineidae. Therein, it belongs to the subfamily Erechthiinae, of which it is the type genus. The exact circumscription of this genus is still disputed, but it may encompass more than 150 species.
Acanthoclita is a genus of tortrix moths belonging to the subfamily Olethreutinae and tribe Grapholitini. It was established in 1982 by Alexey Diakonoff.
Platyptilia is a genus of moths in the family Pterophoridae. The genus was described by Jacob Hübner in 1825.
Exelastis is a genus of plume moths in the family Pterophoridae. There are more than 20 described species in Exelastis.
Elachista is a genus of gelechioid moths described by Georg Friedrich Treitschke in 1833. It is the type genus of the grass-miner moth family (Elachistidae). This family is sometimes circumscribed very loosely, including for example the Agonoxenidae and Ethmiidae which seem to be quite distinct among the Gelechioidea, as well as other lineages which are widely held to be closer to Oecophora than to Elachista and are thus placed in the concealer moth family Oecophoridae here.
Agonopterix is a moth genus of the superfamily Gelechioidea. It is placed in the family Depressariidae, which was often – particularly in older treatments – considered a subfamily of the Oecophoridae or included in the Elachistidae.
Odites is a genus of moths in the family Depressariidae. Most species of this genus are found in Asia and in Africa.
The Stenomatinae are a subfamily of small moths in the family Depressariidae.
Timocratica is a moth genus of the family Depressariidae.
Tingena is a genus of the concealer moth family (Oecophoridae). This genus is endemic to New Zealand.
