Synonyms
Many formerly independent genera have in more recent times been included in Infurcitinea . Some of them – e.g. Karsholtia , Omichlospora and Tineiforma – are still considered distinct by some authors today. But this seems hardly justified, as splitting off such small or even monotypic groups is liable to make Infurcitinea paraphyletic , and thus the following are usually treated as junior synonyms of the present genus:[ 3]
Atinea Amsel, 1954 Atris Zagulayev, 1979 Finalis Zagulayev, 1979 Gozmanytinea Capuse, 1966 Karsholtia Gaedike, 1986 Microtinea Amsel, 1954 Omichlospora Meyrick, 1928 Pseudorumelis Sachkov, 1995 Rumelis Zagulayev, 1979 Tineiforma Amsel, 1952
