Family TENUIPALPIDAE Berlese, 1913
- Tenuipalpidae Sayed, T. 1950. On the taxonomy of tetranychid and allied genera. A new family and two new sub-families in Acarina. Proceedings of the International Congress of Entomology 8: 1012–1017 [junior homonym].
Introduction
The Tenuipalpidae is a very important family of plant parasitic mites that damage food plants and ornamentals by transmitting plant viruses (Walter et al. 2009). Mesa et al. (2009) catalogued 891 species world-wide, and that work should be consulted for a key to genera and details of synonymy, bibliography, and food plants. The family includes very important pests of citrus, coffee, tea, orchids, grapes, fruit trees, grasses, and many other plants, where they are commonly known as flat mites or false spider mites. The most recent general review of the Australian fauna was by Smiley & Gerson (1995), who recorded 18 species. The known fauna now includes 64 described species, more than half of which were described since 1990. Important additions to the fauna were made by Beard et al. (2014) and Beard et al. (2018). The fauna certainly includes many species that have not been described or collected. Unidentified species have been recorded from Australia a number of times as listed for each genus, and unidentified Tenuipalpidae were also recorded by Grostal & O'Dowd (1994), Proctor et al. (2011) and Majer et al. (2013).

Introduction
In addition to the named species listed here, unidentified species of Brevipalpus have been reported from Australia by Colloff et al. (1991), Grostal & O'Dowd (1994), James et al. (1995), Longstaff et al. (1999) and Beaulieu & Weeks (2007). Modern techniques of electron microscopy and molecular systematics are revealing a high level of complexity in the taxonomy of Brevipalpus, and casting doubt on the identification of the specimens reported in older studies (Navia et al., 2013; Hao et al., 2016).

Introduction
The detailed research reported by Beard et al. (2015) shows that several species have been confused under the name Brevipalpus phoenicis, and casts doubt on previous records of this species. Present evidence suggets that B. phoenicis does not occur in Australia, and that all Australian records of this species are misidentifications.

Introduction
The world catalogue of Tenuipalpidae by Mesa et al. (2009) showed that Cenopalpus was absent from Australia. However, an unidentified species was reported by Hatzinikolis & Emmanouel (1987).
