Calopsocidae is a former family of Psocodea (formerly Psocoptera) (book lice) belonging to the suborder Psocomorpha. This family is now considered to be a junior synonym of Pseudocaeciliidae.[1]
Members of the family often have a reticulate venation and coriaceous wings, and a head with a sharp vertex, and they are especially diverse in New Guinea.
