Cuneopalpus is a genus of damp barklice in the family Elipsocidae. There is one described species in the genus, Cuneopalpus cyanops. [2] [3] [4] C. cyanops is found in Benelux, Croatia, Greece, Italy, Ireland, Scandinavia, the United Kingdom, Central Europe, northern Asia, and North America. [2] [4] [5] They are orange in color. [6] It feeds on hemlock, oak and sea buckthorn. [6]

It was first formally described as Eclipsocus cyanops in 1876, [7] but moved to the newly erected genus Cuneopalpus in 1943 by French entomologist André Badonnel in his Faune de France: 42, Pscocoptères (Fauna of France: 42, Psocoptera). [8] [1]

Manicapsocidae is a family of Psocodea. It contains 8 extant species in 4 genera, with most of the species being found in the Neotropics, with one species in the Afrotropics. The extinct family Electrentomidae has been suggested to be a synonym of this family, though this has been considered premature by other scholars in the absence of cladistic analysis. Confirmed fossil species of the family are nearly as numerous as living ones, extending back to the Mid-Cretaceous.
