Including Origmatogonidae Verhoeff, 1914. The convoluted history of this family was briefly reviewed by Enghoff & Reboleira (2013). The vast majority of the 33 European species occurs in the SW, one (Chamaesoma broelemanni) is distributed over most of France, and the two species of Verhoeffeuma Strasser, 1937 occur in NE Italy and Slovenia. The family also has two species from North Africa: Meinerteuma lucasii (Silvestri, 1896) and Origmatogona strinatii Manfredi, 1956 (Manfredi 1956; Akkari et al. 2010).
