As of October 2023 [update] , the World Pseudoscorpiones Catalog accepts the following thirty-seven genera: [2]
Menthidae is a family of pseudoscorpions, first described by Joseph Conrad Chamberlin in 1930.
Bochicidae is a family of pseudoscorpions distributed throughout the Americas from Texas and Mexico to South America, from the Antilles to Venezuela, Guyana and Brazil, as well as in Europe. Members of the family can be diagnosed mainly by features of the claws, notably the presence of exactly 12 trichobothria on each claw and a long, as opposed to short, venom duct. Some species live in caves while some are surface-dwelling.
Chernetidae is a family of pseudoscorpions, first described by Anton Menge in 1855.
Olpiidae is a family of pseudoscorpions in the superfamily Garypoidea. It contains the following genera:
Garypinidae is a family of pseudoscorpions, first described by Eugen von Daday in 1889.
Atemnidae is a family of pseudoscorpions, first described by Kyukichi Kishida in 1929.
Neobisiidae is a family of pseudoscorpions distributed throughout Africa, the Americas and Eurasia and consist of 748 species in 34 genera. Some species live in caves while some are surface-dwelling.
