An annotated list of 19 species of Pterophoridae recorded from Pakistan is given. Five species are new to this country, namely Platyptilia avicennai Ustjuzhanin et Kovtunovich, 2016, Cnaemidophorus rhododactylus (Denis et Schiffermüller, 1775), Stenoptilia stigmatodactyla (Zeller, 1852), Hellinsia pectodactyla (Staudinger, 1859), and Amblyptilia sp. A new synonymy is established: Exelastis ebalensis (Rebel, 1907) = Karachia xylochromella Amsel, 1968, syn. n.
