Psocodea is a taxonomic group of insects comprising the bark lice, book lice and parasitic lice. It was formerly considered a superorder, but is now generally considered by entomologists as an order. Despite the greatly differing appearance of parasitic lice (Phthiraptera), they are believed to have evolved from within the former order Psocoptera, which contained the bark lice and book lice, now found to be paraphyletic.

Psocopteroidea è un raggruppamento di insetti inquadrato al rango di sezione nel superordine dei Paraneoptera (Endopterygota Neoptera). Questo inquadramento sistematico non è universalmente condiviso dalla letteratura scientifica. Comprende gli ordini Psocoptera, Mallophaga e Anoplura e più di undicimila specie divise in sette subordini principali. Diversi studi di biospeleologia hanno dimostrato il carattere primitivo del super-ordine.
