Hemipsocidae
Hemipsocidae is an insect family of Psocodea (formerly Psocoptera) belonging to the infraorder Psocetae. Members of the family have the areola postica joined to the M vein by a crossvein, and their M vein is two-branched. This family comprises twenty-four species in three genera Genus ( plural genera ) is a taxonomic rank used in the biological classification of living and fossil organisms as well as viruses. In the hierarchy of biological classification, genus comes above species and below family. In binomial nomenclat ...: ''Anopistoscena'', ''Hemipsocus'', and ''Metahemipsocus''.

Myopsocidae
Myopsocidae is a family of mouse-like barklice, belonging to the infraorder Psocetae of the order Psocodea (formerly Psocoptera). This family is closely related to Psocidae, with which it shares similar wing-venation, but from which it is distinguished by three-segmented tarsi. There are about 8 genera and at least 180 described species in Myopsocidae. Genera These eight genera belong to the family Myopsocidae: * '' Gyromyus'' * '' Lichenomima'' Enderlein, 1910 * '' Lophopterygella'' * '' Mouldsia'' * '' Myopsocus'' Hagen, 1866 * '' Nimbopsocus'' * '' Smithersia'' * '' Thorntonodes'' c g Data sources: i = ITIS, c = Catalogue of Life, g = GBIF, b = Bugguide.net Sources * Lienhard, C. & Smithers, C.

Psocodea
Psocodea is a taxonomic group of insects comprising the bark lice, book lice and parasitic lice. It was formerly considered a superorder, but is now generally considered by entomologists as an order. Despite the greatly differing appearance of parasitic lice (Phthiraptera), they are believed to have evolved from within the former order Psocoptera, which contained the bark lice and book lice, now found to be paraphyletic. They are often regarded as the most primitive of the hemipteroids. Psocodea contains around 11,000 species, divided among four suborders and more than 70 families. They range in size from 1–10 millimetres (0.04–0.4 in) in length. The species known as booklice received their common name because they are commonly found amongst old books—they feed upon the paste used in binding. The barklice are found on trees, feeding on algae and lichen. Anatomy and biology Psocids are small, scavenging insects with a relatively generalized body plan. They feed pr ...

Psocidae
Psocidae is a family of barklice in the order Psocodea (formerly Psocoptera). Members of this family are recognized by their wing-venation, where the areola postica is fused to the M-vein, giving rise to the so-called discoidal cell. This family is closely related to Myopsocidae. The family is widespread, including New Zealand. Genera These 86 genera belong to the family Psocidae: * '' Amphigerontia'' Kolbe, 1880 * '' Anomaloblaste'' * '' Arabopsocus'' * '' Atlantopsocus'' * '' Atrichadenotecnum'' * '' Atropsocus'' Mockford, 1993 * '' Barrowia'' * '' Blaste'' Kolbe, 1883 * '' Blastopsocidus'' * '' Blastopsocus'' Roesler, 1943 * '' Brachinodiscus'' * '' Camelopsocus'' Mockford, 1965 * '' Cephalopsocus'' * '' Cerastipsocus'' Kolbe, 1884 * '' Ceratostigma'' * '' Cervopsocus'' * '' Chaetoblaste'' * '' Chaetopsocidus'' * '' Chilopsocus'' * '' Clematoscenea'' * '' Clematostigma'' * '' Copostigma'' * '' Cycetes'' * '' Cyclotus'' Swainson, 1840 * '' Dactylopsocus'' * '' Dictyopsocus ...

Infraorder
Order ( la, ordo) is one of the eight major hierarchical taxonomic ranks in Linnaean taxonomy. It is classified between family and class. In biological classification, the order is a taxonomic rank used in the classification of organisms and recognized by the nomenclature codes. An immediately higher rank, superorder, is sometimes added directly above order, with suborder directly beneath order. An order can also be defined as a group of related families. What does and does not belong to each order is determined by a taxonomist, as is whether a particular order should be recognized at all. Often there is no exact agreement, with different taxonomists each taking a different position. There are no hard rules that a taxonomist needs to follow in describing or recognizing an order. Some taxa are accepted almost universally, while others are recognized only rarely. The name of an order is usually written with a capital letter. For some groups of organisms, their orders may follow ...

Psocoptera
Psocoptera are a paraphyletic group of insects that are commonly known as booklice, barklice or barkflies. The name Psocoptera has been replaced with Psocodea in recent literature, with the inclusion of the former order Phthiraptera into Psocodea (as part of the suborder Troctomorpha). These insects first appeared in the Permian period, 295–248 million years ago. They are often regarded as the most primitive of the hemipteroids. Their name originates from the Greek word ψῶχος, ''psokhos'' meaning gnawed or rubbed and πτερά, ''ptera'' meaning wings. There are more than 5,500 species in 41 families in three suborders. Many of these species have only been described in recent years. They range in size from 1–10 millimetres (0.04–0.4 in) in length. The species known as booklice received their common name because they are commonly found amongst old books—they feed upon the paste used in binding. The barklice are found on trees, feeding on algae and l ...
