    Outer Barklice

    Ectopsocidae is a family of small bark lice in the order Psocodea, containing fewer than 200 species concentrated primarily in the genus Ectopsocus. These insects are distinguished by unique wing venation features, particularly the absence of the areola postica in the forewing. They are distributed worldwide with highest diversity in Asia, and are found in dead leaf and leaf litter habitats on trees.
