See Classification Aulacomniaceae is a family of mosses.

The family was first described by Wilhelm Philippe Schimper in his 1860 publication Synopsis Muscorum Europaeorum.
[3] Bell et al. (2007) elevated the family to the order Aulacomniales.
[2] However, the Goffinet et al. (2009) classification places the family within the Rhizogoniales.
