Izatha
Izatha is a genus of moths of the family Oecophoridae. They are commonly known as lichen tuft moths. This genus was first described by Francis Walker in 1864 and is endemic to New Zealand. In 1915 Edward Meyrick synonymised the genus Semiocosma with this genus. The original description did not have a note about the etymology of the name Izatha. The meaning of the name is not clear.

Borkhausenia
Borkhausenia is a genus of the concealer moth family (Oecophoridae) described by Jacob Hübner in 1825. Among these, it belongs to subfamily Oecophorinae, wherein it is probably closely related to Hofmannophila (brown house moth). In the past, several other Oecophoridae (e.g. Schiffermuelleria) have been included in Borkhausenia, as well as a few even more distant members of the superfamily Gelechioidea. Metalampra was originally described as a subgenus of Borkhausenia. Telechrysis has also been included here as a subgenus by some, while other authors have considered it a separate genus in the
