===Problematic genera=== In addition to those assigned to the tribes above, several genera of (presumed) Pyralidae are not firmly placed in this arrangement, but are ''[[incertae sedis]]''. Some may be very [[basal (evolution)|basal]] lineages which stand outside the main snout moth radiations, but given the changing circumscription of the Pyralidae, some are likely to be placed outside this group in its modern meaning, either in the Crambidae or in other lineages of basal [[Obtectomera]]. Some may even belong to more ancient moth lineages, such as the [[Alucitoidea]] or [[Pterophoroidea]]. Finally, some of these (usually little-studied) genera possibly are [[junior synonym]]s of genera described earlier. These genera are in the unranked category of the family Pyralidae.<ref name=pyralidaes>{{cite journal |last1=Pitkin |first1=Brian |last2=Jenkins |first2=Paul |name-list-style=amp |url=https://www.nhm.ac.uk/our-science/data/butmoth/search/GenusList3.dsml?&FAMILY=Pyralidae&sort=GENUS |title=Search results Family: Pyralidae |website=Butterflies and Moths of the World |date=2023 |publisher=[[Natural History Museum, London]]|doi=10.5519/s93616qw }}</ref> The genera in question are: {{div col|colwidth=22em}} * ''[[Apocabimoides]]'' <small>Neunzig & Goodson, 1992</small> * ''[[Ardjuna]]'' <small>Roesler & Küppers, 1979</small> * ''[[Cabimoides]]'' <small>Neunzig & Goodson, 1992</small> * ''[[Cryptophycita]]'' <small>Roesler & Küppers, 1979</small> * ''[[Cryptozophera]]'' <small>Roesler & Küppers, 1979</small> * ''[[Delcina]]'' <small>Clarke, 1986</small> (Phycitinae?) * ''[[Eupassadena]]'' <small>Neunzig & Goodson, 1992</small> * ''[[Gomezmenoria]]'' <small>Agenjo, 1966</small> * ''[[Gunungodes]]'' <small>Roesler & Küppers, 1981</small> * ''[[Indocabnia]]'' <small>Roesler & Küppers, 1981</small> * ''[[Inverina]]'' <small>Neunzig & Goodson, 1992</small> * ''[[Kasyapa (moth)|Kasyapa]]'' <small>Roesler & Küppers, 1981</small> * ''[[Kaurava (moth)|Kaurava]]'' <small>Roesler & Küppers, 1981</small> * ''[[Kumbhakarna (moth)|Kumbhakarna]]'' <small>Roesler & Küppers, 1981</small> * ''[[Merangiria]]'' <small>Roesler & Küppers, 1979</small> * ''[[Ohigginsia]]'' <small>Neunzig & Goodson, 1992</small> * ''[[Pseudopassadena]]'' <small>Neunzig & Goodson, 1992</small> * ''[[Psorozophera]]'' <small>Roesler & Küppers, 1979</small> {{div col end}} These genera have been placed in the Pyralidae when these were still circumscribed ''[[sensu lato]]'' and are sometimes still treated thus, but actually they seem to belong in the Crambidae (see also ''[[Micronix]]'' and ''[[Tanaobela]]''):<ref name=pyralidaes /> * ''[[Alphacrambus]]'' <small>Bassi, 1995</small> * ''[[Peniculimius]]'' <small>Schoute, 1994</small> * ''[[Steneromene]]'' <small>Gaskin, 1986</small> * ''[[Thopeutis]]'' <small>Hübner, 1818</small> * ''[[Yoshiyasua]]'' (formerly ''[[Yoshiyasua|Melanochroa]]'' <small>Yohiyasu, 1985 ''nec'' Roeder, 1886: [[Melanochroa (disambiguation)|preoccupied]]</small>)
