The Lithosiinae (lichen moths) are a subfamily of moths.

The systematics of the Lithosiinae are in need of revision. For example, the proposed tribes Afridini, Cisthenini, Endrosini and Eudesmini require validation and delimitation of content. The arrangement followed here is based on the preliminary consensus list of Savela (2007).

Lithosiinae incertae sedis

Most genera have not been robustly assigned to a tribe yet. These genera incertae sedis are:
