%X The phycitine genera Faveria Walker, Morosaphycita, gen. nov., Epicrocis Zeller, Ptyobathra Turner and Vinicia Ragonot are revised, based on their type species and 18 Australian species. Comprehensive descriptions and illustrations are given for the Australian species and the genitalia of some critical species from outside Australia are figured. Oligochroa Ragonot, Pristarthria Ragonot and Sclerobia Ragonot are junior synonyms of Faveria, with six Australian species including the type species Faveria laiasalis Walker and Faveria griseopuncta, sp. nov. Morosaphycita, gen. nov., is proposed for a group of species including the complex of Morosaphycita morosalis (Saalm&#220;ller) with two new Australian species, the type of the genus M. tridens, sp. nov., and M. bispinosa, sp. nov. Canthelea Walker is treated as a junior synonym of Epicrocis, and E. festivella Zeller and E. oegnusalis (Walker) are part of two species complexes each including Australian species, E. pulchra, sp. nov., and E. atrilinea, sp. nov., with the former and E. metallopa (Lower) with the latter. Ptyobathra is based on an Australian species, but extends to Sri Lanka and Japan, whereas Vinicia is so far known only from Australia and New Zealand. Vinicia gypsopa (Meyrick) is synonymised with Vinicia digrammella (Meyrick). Lectotypes are designated for Pempelia strigiferella Meyrick, Pempelia rufitinctella Meyrick, Pempelia caliginosella Meyrick, Eucarphia cnephaeella Meyrick, Nephopteryx dasyptera Lower, Pempelia oculiferella Meyrick, Homoeosoma gratella Walker, Oligochroa atrisquamella Hampson, Nephopteryx hades Lower, Pempelia digrammella Meyrick, Salebria gypsopa Meyrick and Epicrocis macrota Meyrick.
