Oecophoridae
Oecophoridae (concealer moths) is a family of small moths in the superfamily Gelechioidea. The phylogeny and systematics of gelechoid moths are still not fully resolved, and the circumscription of the Oecophoridae is strongly affected by this. Taxonomy and systematics * Pleurotinae Toll, 1956 * Deuterogoniinae Spuler, 1910 * Unplaced ** '' Colchia'' Lvovsky, 1995 Also possibly included is the Peruvian species '' Auxotricha ochrogypsa'', described by Edward Meyrick in 1931 as the sole member of its genus. 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) * Stath
