From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Peripsocidae is a family of Psocoptera belonging to the suborder Psocomorpha. Members of the family are characterised by their absence of an areola postica in their wings. Many of the recently described genera are closely allied to Peripsocus, and only two genera are presented here. The family includes more than 200 species.
