Liviidae is a family of plant lice (order Hemiptera), with about 19 genera.
Subfamilies and genera There have been various classifications of Psylloidea including that of Burckhardt and Ouvrard (2012); in the latest (2021) review,Burckhardt D, Ouvrard D, Percy DM (2021) An updated classification of the jumping plant-lice (Hemiptera: Psylloidea) integrating molecular and morphological evidence. European Journal of Taxonomy 736: 137–182. DOI three monophyletic subfamilies were identified:
