The Blastobasidae are a family of moths in the superfamily Gelechioidea. Its species can be found almost anywhere in the world, though in some places they are not native but introduced by humans. In some arrangements, these moths are included in the case-bearer family (Coleophoridae) as subfamily Blastobasinae. The Symmocidae are sometimes included in the Blastobasidae as subfamily or tribe.
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.
Anarsia is a genus of moths in the family Gelechiidae.
Brachmia is a genus of the twirler moth family (Gelechiidae). Among these, it is mostly placed in the subfamily Dichomeridinae.
Compsolechia is a genus of moths in the family Gelechiidae.
Dichomeris is a genus of moths in the family Gelechiidae erected by Jacob Hübner in 1818.
Helcystogramma is a genus of moths in the family Gelechiidae. The genus was erected by Philipp Christoph Zeller in 1877.
Thiotricha is a genus of moths in the family Gelechiidae, subfamily Thiotrichinae.
Pigritia is a genus of moths in the family Blastobasidae.
The Lecithocerinae are a subfamily of small moths in the family Lecithoceridae. They are found worldwide, but most species occur in South Asia. The subfamily is characterized by the male genitalia with a bridge-like structure connecting the tegumen and the valva, and the uncus almost always is vestigal with two lobes at the dorsal base, only exceptionally united into a broad plate, but never as a thorn or spine.
Scoparia is a grass moth genus of subfamily Scopariinae. Some authors have assigned the synonymous taxon Sineudonia to the snout moth family (Pyralidae), where all grass moths were once also included, but this seems to be in error.
Lecithocera is a genus of moths in the lecithocerid subfamily Lecithocerinae. The genus was erected by Gottlieb August Wilhelm Herrich-Schäffer in 1853.
Antaeotricha is a genus of moths. It is the largest genus in the subfamily Stenomatinae, numbering over 400 species in the Western Hemisphere.

Acrocercops is a genus of moths in the family Gracillariidae.
Xyloryctidae is a family of moths contained within the superfamily Gelechioidea described by Edward Meyrick in 1890. Most genera are found in the Indo-Australian region. While many of these moths are tiny, some members of the family grow to a wingspan of up to 66 mm, making them giants among the micromoths.
Pigritia troctis is a moth in the family Blastobasidae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1922. It is found on Barbados.
