Tischerioidea is the superfamily of "trumpet" leaf miner moths. This is one candidate as the sister group (see also Palaephatoidea) of the bulk of Lepidoptera, the Ditrysia (Davis, 1999; Wiegmann ''et al.'', 2002), and they have a monotrysian type of female reproductive system. The superfamily contains just one family and traditionally one genus, ''Tischeria'', but currently three genera are recognised, widespread across the World including South America (Davis, 1986), except for Australasia (Puplesis and Diskus, 2003). These small moths are leaf-miners () in the caterpillar stage, feeding mainly on Fagaceae (''Tischeria'' and ''Coptotriche''), Asteraceae and Malvaceae (''Astrotischeria''), and some also on Rhamnaceae, Tiliaceae and Rosaceae()(). ==References== *Davis D.R.
