Fauriellidae

Almost nothing is known of the biology of the five species recognised in this family (Mound et al., 1980). Their distributions are remarkable, with one species from California, two from southern Africa, and two from southern Europe. Bhatti (2006: 352) placed this family in synonymy with Hemithripidae that is based only on fossils.
