In the past, the family was circumscribed more widely and included the following subfamilies: * Amphisbatinae (sometimes in Depressariinae) * Autostichinae * Depressariinae (including Cryptolechiinae) * Hypertrophinae * Metachandinae * Oecophorinae (including Chimabachinae, Deuterogoniinae, Peleopodinae, Philobotinae) * Stathmopodinae * Stenomatinae Some treatments include only the Oecophorinae and Stathmopodinae here, placing the others elsewhere in the Gelechoidea (typica ...

Ethmia Quadrillella
''Ethmia quadrillella'' is a moth belonging to the family Depressariidae, subfamily Ethmiinae. Subspecies Three subspecies have been described: * ''Ethmia quadrillella quadrillela'' – northern populations * ''Ethmia quadrillella canuisella'' (Millière, 1867) – southwestern populations (southern France, Italy) * ''Ethmia quadrillella luctuosella'' (Herrich-Schäffer, 1854) – Asia Minor Distribution This species can be found in Eurasia.

The basic color of wings is white, with large black markings. Biology The flight time ranges from May to mid September in one or two generations. The host plants are comfrey (genus ''Symphytum''), forget-me-not (genus ''Myosotis'') and lungwort (''Pulmonaria officinalis''). Larvae overwinter in a cocoon amongst leaf litter.

Elachistidae
The Elachistidae (grass-miner moths) are a family of small moths in the superfamily Gelechioidea. Some authors lump about 3,300 species in eight subfamilies here, but this arrangement almost certainly results in a massively paraphyletic and completely unnatural assemblage, united merely by symplesiomorphies retained from the first gelechioid moths. In fact, most of these moths appear to be either closer to the Oecophorinae and are hence nowadays usually included in the Oecophoridae ( Depressariinae, " Deuterogoniinae", Hypertrophinae, Stenomatinae and perhaps the enigmatic '' Aeolanthes''), or constitute quite basal lineages of gelechioids, neither closely related to '' Elachista'' nor to '' Oecophora'', and hence best treated as independent families within the Gelechioidea ( Agonoxenidae, Ethmiidae). The genus '' Coelopoeta'' is sometimes still placed here, but probably belongs in the Oecophorinae. Consequently, the Elachistidae are essentially identical to the subfamily ...

Erysiptila
''Erysiptila'' is a genus of moths in the family Depressariidae. It contains only one species, ''Erysiptila clevelandi'', which is found in Panama and Costa Rica. The wingspan The wingspan (or just span) of a bird or an airplane is the distance from one wingtip to the other wingtip. For example, the Boeing 777–200 has a wingspan of , and a wandering albatross (''Diomedea exulans'') caught in 1965 had a wingspan of ... is about 18 mm. The forewings are white, irregularly mottled with grey and with a suffused blackish-fuscous triangular patch extending on the costa from near the base to three-fifths, and reaching half across wing. There are two tufts of scales beneath this on the end of the cell and a few scattered black scales towards the dorsum in the middle.
