Manicapsocidae is afamily ofPsocodea (formerly Psocoptera). It contains 8 extant species in 4 genera, with most of the species being found in the Neotropics and one species in theAfrotropics. Theextinct familyElectrentomidae has been suggested as asynonym of this family, though this has been considered premature by other scholars in the absence ofcladistic analysis. Confirmed fossil species of the family are nearly as numerous as living ones, extending back to the mid-Cretaceous.
