'''''Infurcitinea''''' is a genus of the fungus moth family, Tineidae. Therein, it belongs to the Meessiinae, one of the larger fungus moth subfamilies.<ref>Pitkin & Jenkins (2004), FE (2009), and see references in Savela (2001)</ref>

==Species== 76 species were placed in ''Infurcitinea'' as of 2003, but new species are still being discovered regularly:<ref>Robinson [2010]</ref> {{div col|colwidth=35em}} * ''Infurcitinea albanica'' G.Petersen, 1963 * ''Infurcitinea albicomella'' (Stainton, 1851) * ''Infurcitinea albulella'' (Rebel, 1935) * ''Infurcitinea amseli'' G.Petersen, 1957 * ''Infurcitinea anatolica'' Petersen, 1968 * ''Infurcitinea arenbergeri'' Gaedike, 1988 * ''Infurcitinea argentimaculella'' (Stainton, 1849) * ''Infurcitinea atrifasciella'' (Staudinger, 1871) * ''Infurcitinea banatica'' G.Petersen, 1961 * ''Infurcitinea belviella'' Gaedike, 1980 * ''Infurcitinea brunneopterella'' G.Petersen, 1964 * ''Infurcitinea captans'' Gozmány, 1960 * ''Infurcitinea cyprica'' G.Petersen & Gaedike, 1985 * ''Infurcitinea fasciella'' Gaedike, 1983 * ''Infurcitinea finalis'' Gozmány, 1959 * ''Infurcitinea frustigerella'' (Walsingham, 1907) * ''Infurcitinea gaedikei'' Baldizzone, 1984 * ''Infurcitinea gaedikella'' Nel, 2003 * ''Infurcitinea graeca'' G.Petersen & Gaedike, 1983 * ''Infurcitinea grisea'' G.Petersen, 1973 * ''Infurcitinea hellenica'' Gaedike, 1997 * ''Infurcitinea ignicomella'' (Heydenreich, 1851) * ''Infurcitinea incertula'' (Meyrick, 1928) * ''Infurcitinea iranensis'' G.Petersen, 1964 * ''Infurcitinea italica'' (Amsel, 1954) * ''Infurcitinea karadaghica'' Zagulayev, 1979 * ''Infurcitinea karmeliella'' Amsel, 1935 * ''Infurcitinea karsholti'' Gaedike, 1992 * ''Infurcitinea kasyi'' G.Petersen, 1962 * ''Infurcitinea klimeschi'' Passerin d'Entrèves, 1974 * ''Infurcitinea lakoniae'' Gaedike, 1983 * ''Infurcitinea lambessella'' G.Petersen, 1958 * ''Infurcitinea litochorella'' G.Petersen, 1964 * ''Infurcitinea longipennis'' Zagulayev, 1979 * ''Infurcitinea luteella'' Forbes, 1931 * ''Infurcitinea marcunella'' (Rebel, 1901) * ''Infurcitinea marianii'' (Rebel, 1936) * ''Infurcitinea maroccana'' G.Petersen & Gaedike, 1979 * ''Infurcitinea maura'' G.Petersen, 1962 * ''Infurcitinea media'' (Walsingham, 1907) * ''Infurcitinea megalopterella'' G.Petersen, 1964 * ''Infurcitinea minuscula'' Gozmány, 1960 * ''Infurcitinea monteiroi'' Amsel, 1957 * ''Infurcitinea nedae'' Gaedike, 1983 * ''Infurcitinea nigropluviella'' (Walsingham, 1907) * ''Infurcitinea nuristanica'' G.Petersen, 1963 * ''Infurcitinea obscura'' G.Petersen, 1973 * ''Infurcitinea obscuroides'' Gaedike, 1983 * ''Infurcitinea ochridella'' G.Petersen, 1962 * ''Infurcitinea olympica'' G.Petersen, 1958 * ''Infurcitinea palpella'' Forbes, 1931 * ''Infurcitinea parentii'' G.Petersen, 1964 * ''Infurcitinea parnassiella'' Gaedike, 1987 * ''Infurcitinea peterseni'' Baldizzone, 1984 * ''Infurcitinea quettaella'' G.Petersen, 1971 * ''Infurcitinea raddei'' G.Petersen, 1958 * ''Infurcitinea rebeliella'' (Krone, 1907) * ''Infurcitinea reisseri'' G.Petersen, 1968 * ''Infurcitinea roesslerella'' (Heyden, 1865) * ''Infurcitinea rumelicella'' (Rebel, 1903) * ''Infurcitinea safedella'' G.Petersen, 1973 * ''Infurcitinea sardica'' (Amsel, 1951) * ''Infurcitinea sardiniella'' Vári, 1942 * ''Infurcitinea senecae'' Gaedike, 1987 * ''Infurcitinea siciliana'' G.Petersen, 1964 * ''Infurcitinea tauridella'' G.Petersen, 1968 * ''Infurcitinea taurus'' Gaedike, 1988 * ''Infurcitinea teheranensis'' G.Petersen, 1971 * ''Infurcitinea teriolella'' (Amsel, 1954) * ''Infurcitinea toechophila'' (Walsingham, 1908) * ''Infurcitinea tribertii'' Gaedike, 1983 * ''Infurcitinea turcica'' G.Petersen, 1968 * ''Infurcitinea vanderwolfi'' Gaedike, 1997 * ''Infurcitinea vartianae'' G.Petersen, 1962 * ''Infurcitinea walsinghami'' G.Petersen, 1962 * ''Infurcitinea yildizae'' Koçak, 1981 {{div col end}}

==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:<ref>Pitkin & Jenkins (2004), FE (2009)</ref> * ''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
