Totally 63 species, their subspecies with their synonyms are placed in the list given in the fifth section.

The sixth section has been mentioned under the heading of systematic catalogue. In this place, each species has been taken up in terms of its original reference, type location, geographic distribution and food plant. Moreover, New synonyms have been established and the subgenera, Tremewania in the genus of Jordanita and Procrita in the genus Adscita have been presented to the science by being determined in the first time.

Text figures belonging to the genital organs of females and males have been presented in the eighth section.

In the nineth section, Efetov’s observations have been assessed, and the prematural stages of six species belonging to Jordanita and Adscita have been explained.

In the tenth section, the new records concerning the parasities of Procrinae have been mentioned.

The acknowledgement has been placed in the eleventh section.

The coloured pictures regarding the "adult moths" [!], its early development periods and biotops have been gathered in the twelveth section.

The selected references are placed in the thirteenth section.

The indexes of the names of Lepidoptera, the authors of the taxa and the larval food plants have been finally placed in the study.
