Cacochroa is a moth genus of the superfamily Gelechioidea.

Taxonomy

[edit]

The systematic placement is problematic due to insufficient research. Formerly, it was often placed in tribe Orophiini of subfamily Oecophorinae, in particular in older treatments it is variously placed in a distinct tribe Cacochroini and/or assigned to subfamily Depressariinae (treated as a subfamily of the Elachistidae). It is now placed in the independent family Depressariidae of Gelechioidea.
