Lecithoceridae
The Lecithoceridae, or long-horned moths, are a family of small moths described by Simon Le Marchand in 1947. Although lecithocerids are found throughout the world, the great majority are found in the Indomalayan realm and the southern part of the Palaearctic realm. Systematics The Lecithoceridae belong to the superfamily Gelechioidea, and comprises over 100 genera and nearly 900 species. The family is divided into these subfamilies: * Lecithocerinae * Torodorinae Gozmány in Amsel et al., 1978 * Ceuthomadarinae Gozmány, 1978 Park (2015) recently proposed another subfamily Crocanthinae, mainly based on ''Crocanthes'' Meyrick. The new subfamily include ''Crocanthes'' Meyrick, ''Aprosesta'' Turner, ''st. rev.'' (which is resurrected as a valid genus), ''Lamprista'' Park, ''Pacificulla'' Park, ''Hannara'' Park, and ''Gonaepa'' Walker. Unplaced to subfamily *''Crocanthes'' group **'' Crocanthes'' Meyrick, 1886 **'' Cophomantella'' T. B. Fletcher, 1940 **'' Hannara'' Park in Park & L ...

Lecithocerinae
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 The uncus is an anterior extremity of the parahippocampal gyrus. It is separated from the apex of the temporal lobe by a slight fissure called the incisura temporalis (also called rhinal sulcus). Although superficially continuous with the hipp ... almost always is vestigial with two lobes at the dorsal base, only exceptionally united into a broad plate, but never as a thorn or spine. Older classifications have treated the family Lecithoceridae as subfamily Lecithocerinae of Gelechiidae.
