Philotarsus is a genus of loving barklice in the family Philotarsidae. There are about 18 described species in Philotarsus. [1] [2] [3] [4]
These 18 species belong to the genus Philotarsus:
Caeciliusidae is a family of Psocoptera belonging to the suborder Psocomorpha. The family was once named Caeciliidae, but the latter name was changed because of homonymy with the amphibian family Caeciliidae. The subfamily Paracaeciliinae was formerly in Caeciliusidae, but it has been elevated to family rank, Paracaeciliidae.
Lepidopsocidae are an insect family of bark lice (Psocoptera) belonging to the suborder Trogiomorpha. Colloquially, Lepidopsocidae are referred to as the Scaly-winged Barklice. There are more than 220 species described worldwide. Phylogenetic analysis of relationships between families in Trogiomorpha, based on partial sequences of the nuclear 18S rDNA, mitochondrial 16S rDNA, and Histone 3 genes, propose that Lepidopsocidae is monophyletic, meaning that the taxa within share a common ancestor. This is supported morphologically by the presence of scales and setae covering the body and forewings of Lepodopsocids. Sister families of Lepidoposcidae include Trogiidae and Psoquillidae.
Echmepteryx is a genus of scaly-winged barklice in the family Lepidopsocidae. There are more than 80 described species in Echmepteryx.
Rhyopsocus is a genus of bird nest barklice in the family Psoquillidae. There are more than 20 described species in Rhyopsocus.

Cerastipsocus is a genus of common barklice in the family Psocidae. There are more than 20 described species in Cerastipsocus.
Mesopsocus is a genus of middle barklice in the family Mesopsocidae. There are more than 60 described species in Mesopsocus.
Steleops is a genus of common barklice in the family Psocidae. There are more than 20 described species in Steleops.
