Sometimes this is listed as a sub-family of OECOPHORIDAE or XYLORYCTIDAE but here, following Nielsen et al., we list it as a separate family. There appear to be two named Australian species in SYMMOCIDAE:

Apiletria marcida

Nemotyla oribates

previous family

Australian butterflies

Australian Lepidoptera

Australian moths

next family
