Fabroniaceae is a family of mosses belonging to the order Hypnales. It has a worldwide distribution, in temperate and tropical regions.
The Fabroniaceae were established by Schimper (in 1855) to accommodate three genera: Fabronia , Anacamptodon and Anisodon .(= Clasmatodon ). Only Fabronia is still considered a member of the family (Buck & Goffinet 2000; Goffinet & Buck 2004; Goffinet et al.2009). The Fabroniaceae are well represented in the tropics with few species occurring in the North Temperate Zone.
