2005 taxonomy
Acochlidiidae was classified as the only family within the superfamily Acochlidioidea Küthe, 1935 in the taxonomy of Bouchet & Rocroi (2005).[4] Palliohedylidae was in turn classified as the only family within the superfamily Palliohedyloidea.[4]
2010 taxonomy
Schrödl & Neusser (2010)[1] redefined the taxonomy of Acochlidiacea in 2010, placing the family Acochlidiidae in the clade Hedylopsacea.[1]
