Pseudotyrannochthoniidae is a family of pseudoscorpions, belonging to the superfamily Chthonioidea. It represents the most basal and primitive group of living pseudoscorpions, with less than 100 species in 6 genera.

Fossils species are known from the Eocene Baltic and Bitterfeld amber, which represent members of extant Asian genera.
