A list is given of the genera included in the family, on a world basis, with type-species and a summary of numbers of species, their distribution and host plant data. The family-group name Pauropsyllinae is placed within the Triozidae, necessitating the transfer of Paurocephala back to the Aphalaridae and Microceropsylla and Pelmato-brachia to the Calophyidae, and seven new combinations. The genus-group name Sympauropsylla is synonymised with Pauropsylla. A checklist of Afrotropical taxa is given, with host plant and distribution data, and a key is provided for the identification of the 69 recognisable species. Two of the eight previously described species are treated as doubtful because their types are lost or untraced and the species cannot be recognised from their original descriptions; Trioza eastopi Orian is synonymised with T. litseae Bordage; one new genus and 63 new species are described.
