Biddulphiaceae is a family of diatom, the only family in the order Biddulphiales.
[1] The Biddulphiaceae are distinguished from the Eupodiscaceae by their pseudocelli, where the Eupodiscaceae have fully developed ocelli.
[2] Both families commonly inhabit the littoral zone of the ocean, close to the shore.
[3] Sixteen species of Biddulphiaceae are found on the west coast of India.
