Platychasmatinae is a smallEast Asiansubfamily of themothfamilyNotodontidae. Only twogenera are placed here at present:
Though not all Notodontidae have been assigned to subfamilies yet, it is unlikely that many of these generaincertae sedis will turn out to be Platychasmatinae, as thus family is a rather ancient and distinct group. In fact, a newly discovered species ofPlatychasma is somewhat intermediate between the two genera, suggesting that this subfamily might actually bemonotypic.
