Coccidiphila is a genus of moths in the family Cosmopterigidae.
The Zygaenidae moths are a family of Lepidoptera. The majority of zygaenids are tropical, but they are nevertheless quite well represented in temperate regions. Some of the 1000 or so species are commonly known as burnet or forester moths, often qualified by the number of spots, although other families also have 'foresters'. They are also sometimes called smoky moths.
Batrachedra is the largest genus in the moth family Batrachedridae, with representatives all over the world. The early stages of most species are unknown. The genus name is derived from the Greek words batrachos, 'frog', and edra, 'seat', referring to the frog-like resting posture of the adult moths. As of 2018 at least some 114 species are known to belong to the genus.
The Cosmopterigidae are a family of insects in the order Lepidoptera. These are small moths with narrow wings whose tiny larvae feed internally on the leaves, seeds and stems of their host plants. About 1500 species are described. The taxonomic family is most diverse in the Australian and Pacific region with about 780 species.
Anatrachyntis is a genus of moths in the family Cosmopterigidae. Some authors include it in Pyroderces.
Opogona is a genus of the fungus moth family, Tineidae. Therein, it belongs to the subfamily Hieroxestinae. As it includes Opogona omoscopa, the type species of the now-abolished genus Hieroxestis, it is the type genus of its subfamily.
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.
Pterophorinae is a subfamily of moths in the family Pterophoridae.
Coccidiphila gerasimovi is a moth in the family Cosmopterigidae described by Aleksandr Sergeievich Danilevsky in 1950.

Scrobipalpa ergasima is a moth of the family Gelechiidae. Edward Meyrick first used the scientific name in 1916. It is found in the Mediterranean Region and on the Canary Islands. Outside of Europe, it is found in Egypt, Saudi Arabia, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Namibia, South Africa, Sudan, Australia, India, Indonesia, Myanmar and Pakistan.
