Amoebidiidae is a family or protists, previously thought to be zygomycete fungi belonging to the class Trichomycetes, but now considered to be members of the opisthokont protist group Mesomycetozoea.[1] The family was originally called Amoebidiaceae,[1] and considered the sole family of the fungal order Amoebidiales.

It contains the genera Amoebidium and Paramoebidium.
