Checklist of Psocoptera according to the World Catalogue (Lienhard & Smithers, 2002)


If you would like to make an update to this checklist and the corresponding bibliography (new records and nomenclatural or taxonomic changes) you can search the Additions and Corrections to the World Catalogue published in Psocid News, No. 4, 5, 6 etc. and available online at the PsocoNet Homepage.
