Ochyroticinae Wasserthal, 1970 . Zeitschr. Morph. Tiere, 68: 205.

Type genus: Ochyrotica Walsingham, 1891 . Entomologist’s Mon. Mag., 27: 217 .

Wasserthal (1970) erected the subfamily Ochyroticinae based on the presence of DbI in Ochyrotica and its absence in Agdisitis after analysing the primary setal pattern of the Pterophorid first instar larvae. He regarded Ochyroticinae as a sister group of Pterophorinae considering the presence of DbI in Pterophorinae and its absence in Platyptiliinae . This subfamily Ochyroticinae was not accepted until Gielis (1993), who analysed the phylogeneric relationships between the genera of Pterophoridae .
