Praydidae is a family of false ermine moths in the superfamily Yponomeutoidea. [1] [2] [3]
Attevidae is a family of moths of the Yponomeutoidea superfamily, containing only one genus, Atteva. The group has a pantropical distribution, but at least one species has a range that extends into the temperate zone. No consistent hypotheses regarding the relationships, placement, and ranking of Attevidae have been published, but the prevalent view is that they likely form a monophyletic group within the Yponomeutoidea.
Gelechioidea is the superfamily of moths that contains the case-bearers, twirler moths, and relatives, also simply called curved-horn moths or gelechioid moths. It is a large and poorly understood '"micromoth" superfamily, constituting one of the basal lineages of the Ditrysia.
Galacticidae is a recently recognised and enigmatic family of insects in the lepidopteran order. These moderate sized moths are 8–17 mm in wingspan and have previously been embedded within several lepidopteran superfamilies, but Galacticidae is currently placed in its own superfamily at the base of the natural group Apoditrysia.
The Batrachedridae are a small family of tiny moths. These are small, slender moths which rest with their wings wrapped tightly around their bodies.
Orthia is a monotypic moth genus of the family Noctuidae. Its only species, Orthia augias, is found in the Brazilian state of Amazonas. Both the genus and species were first described by Gottlieb August Wilhelm Herrich-Schäffer in 1853.
Dyspteris is a monotypic moth genus in the family Geometridae erected by Jacob Hübner in 1818 found in North America.

It is called "bad-wing" because its forewing is much larger than its hindwing, making it often difficult to pull into position for spreading.
