Autostichinae
__NOTOC__ The Autostichinae are a subfamily of moths in the Taxonomic rank, superfamily Gelechioidea. Like their relatives therein, their exact relationships are not yet very well resolved. The present lineage was often included in the concealer moth family (biology), family (Oecophoridae), but alternatively it is united with the Symmocidae ''sensu stricto'' (and often also the Holcopogonidae and/or certain genera otherwise considered twirler moths, e.g. ''Deoclona'' and ''Syringopais'') to form an expanded family Autostichidae (in the past also referred to as family Symmocidae). Selected genera Genera in this subfamily are:ABRS (2008), Wikispecies (2011-OCT-17) * ''Anaptilora'' Meyrick, 1904 * ''Autosticha'' Meyrick, 1886 (including ''Epicoenia, Semnolocha'') * ''Demiophila'' Meyrick, 1906 * ''Deroxena'' Meyrick, 1913 * ''Diophila'' Meyrick, 1937 * ''Encrasima'' Meyrick, 1916 * ''Galagete'' B.Landry, 2002 * ''Heliangara'' Meyrick, 1906 * ''Ischnodoris'' Meyrick, 1911 * ''Lasiodic ...

Edward Meyrick
Edward Meyrick (25 November 1854 – 31 March 1938) was an English schoolmaster and amateur entomologist. He was an expert on microlepidoptera and some consider him one of the founders of modern microlepidoptera systematics. Life and work Edward Meyrick came from a clerical family and was born in Ramsbury on 25 November 1854 to the Rev. Edward Meyrick, until his marriage earlier that year a Fellow of Magdalen College, Oxford, and his wife Mary Batson of Ramsbury. He was educated at Marlborough College and Trinity College, Cambridge. He actively pursued his hobby during his schooling, and one colleague stated in 1872 that Meyrick "has not left a lamp, a paling, or a tree unexamined in which a moth could possibly, at any stage of its existence, lie hid." Meyrick began publishing notes on microlepidopterans in 1875, but when in December, 1877 he gained a post at The King's School, Parramatta, New South Wales, there were greater opportunities for indulging his interest. He st ...
