Epimarptis

Epimarptis is a genus of moths of the family Epimarptidae, it was previously part of Batrachedridae or others (see below).

==Taxonomy== The genus was created by Meyrick, 1914 for the species Epermenia philocoma from India. The genus remained monotypic until three years later, when Meyrick, 1917 added a second species, this time from Sri Lanka. Here, Meyrick decided to reclassify the genus in the family Epermeniidae. Finally, Meyrick, 1931 described a third species from Assam, eastern India. The genus remained with just three species from the Indian subcontinent until Kazuhiro Sugisima described a fourth new species from Japan in 2004. Whilst specimens of this Japanese moth had been collected numerous times since at least 1975, they had remained without precise identification.
