A checklist of 67 Israeli species of families Oecophoridae (17 species), Autostichidae (16), Depressariidae (25), Cryptolechiidae (3), and Lecithoceridae (6) is presented. The checklist is based on material collected by the authors in 2003 in Israel and existing published records. Eight species are new records for the fauna of Israel: Dasycera intermediella Stainton, 1867, Batia internella Jäckh, 1972, Carcina quercana (Fabricius, 1775), Oegoconia deauratella (Herrich-Schäffer, 1854), Oegoconia caradjai Popescu-Gorj & Caˇpus¸e, 1965, Agonopterix ferulae (Zeller, 1847), Agonopterix kaekeritziana (Linnaeus, 1767) and Lecithocera anatolica Gozmány, 1978. Two new combinations are proposed: Epicallima einsleri (Amsel, 1934), comb. n. from Borkhausenia Hübner, [1825], and Promalactis splendidella (Amsel, 1934), comb. n. from Epicallima Dyar, [1903].
