Thuidiaceae is a family of mosses within the order Hypnales. It includes many genera but the classification may need to be refined. The core genera Thuidium, Thuidiopsis, Pelekium, Aequatoriella, Abietinella, Rauiella, Haplocladium and Actinothuidium form a clade but others currently placed in the family may belong elsewhere.[1]
Species include Thuidiopsis sparsa and Abietinella abietina
