Mengenillidae is a family of insects belonging to the order Strepsiptera.[1] It is the second most basal member of the order, after Bahiaxenidae. Unlike members of Stylopidia, which contains the vast majority of strepsipterans, the adult females of the family are free-living with legs.[2] Members of the family with known hosts (Eoxenos and Mengenilla) parasitise members of the family Lepismatidae (silverfish and kin).[3]
