Tineoidea is the ditrysian superfamily of moths that includes clothes moths, bagworms and relatives. There are six families usually included within it, Eriocottidae, Arrhenophanidae, Lypusidae, Acrolophidae, Tineidae and Psychidae, whose relationships are currently uncertain.
Arrhenophaninae is a subfamily of moths in family Psychidae. It was once recognised as a family, but has been found deeply nested in Psychidae in phylogenetic studies.
The insect order Lepidoptera consists of moths, most of which are night-flying, and a derived group, mainly day-flying, called butterflies. Within Lepidoptera as a whole, the groups listed below before Glossata contain a few basal families accounting for less than 200 species; the bulk of Lepidoptera are in the Glossata. Similarly, within the Glossata, there are a few basal groups listed first, with the bulk of species in the Heteroneura. Basal groups within Heteroneura cannot be defined with as much confidence, as there are still some disputes concerning the proper relations among these groups. At the family level, however, most groups are well defined, and the families are commonly used by hobbyists and scientists alike.
Palaeophanes is a genus of moths in the family Arrhenophanidae.
Notiophanes is a genus of moths in the family Arrhenophanidae, consisting of only one species Notiophanes fuscata, which is endemic to Queensland, Australia. It is only known from a single female specimen.

Palaeophanes lativalva is a species of moth in the family Arrhenophanidae. It is only known from the type locality, which is situated in a wet forested area in the central mountain range of Taiwan, at an elevation of about 1,400 m.
Palaeophanes brevispina is a species of moth in the family Arrhenophanidae. It is only known from Brunei.
Cnissostages oleagina is a species of moth in the family Arrhenophanidae family. It has a wide range in the Neotropical Region from Sinaloa, Mexico to southern Brazil and Paraguay.
Cnissostages mastictor is a species of moth in the family Arrhenophanidae. It is found from Costa Rica to Peru.
Cnissostages osae is a species of moth in the family Arrhenophanidae. It is known only from the Osa Peninsula in southern Costa Rica.

Dysoptus anachoreta is a species of moth in the family Arrhenophanidae. It is known only from the type locality, Sierra del Libano, a dense subtropical forest and a spur of the Cuchilla San Lorenzo on the south-western Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta in Magdalena Province of Colombia.
Dysoptus probata is a species of moth in the family Arrhenophanidae. It is known only from the type locality in south-western Guatemala.
Dysoptus bilobus is a species of moth in the family name Arrhenophanidae. It is known only from the type locality, a lowland, tropical rainforest habitat in Costa Rica.
Dysoptus acuminatus is a species of moth in the family Arrhenophanidae. It is known only from the type locality in southern Venezuela, but it almost certainly will be found elsewhere in the lowland Amazon rainforest.
