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