PERLOHMANNIIDAE Grandjean, 1954

Berlese (1916a) reckoned Perlohmannia among the representatives of the tribe Lohmannini, but Grandjean (1931) separated the genus from this tribe and thought that it were possible to include it in a new tribe Trhypochthonini . This opinion has been corrected by him in 1954 when the family Perlohmanniidae was created, and in 1958 when the family was placed in a superfamily Perlohmannoidea .

Collohmannia Sellnick (1922) certainly does not belong to the Perlohmanniidae, so that for the moment the family consists of only one genus.
