Some taxonomists place this family as the subfamily PLUTELLINAE in YPONOMEUTIDAE, and sometimes this family is included in GLYPHIPTERIGIDAE, but here, following Nielsen et al, we list it as a separate family. Also some taxonomists place the genus Tritymba in BUCCULATRICIDAE, but again here, following Nielsen et al, we list it in PLUTELLIDAE.
So: the 27 named species of PLUTELLIDAE in Australia are :
Diathryptica callibrya
Diathryptica proterva
Diathryptica theticopis
Nag psammochroa : Stripey Plutellid
Phalangitis crymorrhoa
Phalangitis pellochroa
Phalangitis triaria
Phalangitis tumultuosa
Phalangitis veterana
Plutella xylostella : Cabbage Moth
