Epimarptidae is a family of moths in the superfamily Gelechioidea. Depending on source publication, it was previously monotypic. The lineage was previously seen as either a synonym of the family Batrachedridae, or a unique valid monotypic subfamily Epimarptinae of that family. However, elsewhere in the more recent literature, it is a distinct valid family.
