Boreosolifugae is a suborder of animals in the order Solifugae. In 2023, the internal phylogeny of solifuges was resolved for the first time using phylogenomics.[1] The molecular phylogeny of the order showed evidence for two groups of families, which were recognized as suborders. Boreosolifugae comprises five families, predominantly from the Northern Hemisphere:
- Eremobatidae Kraepelin, 1901
- Galeodidae Sundevall, 1833
- Gylippidae Roewer, 1933
- Karschiidae Kraepelin, 1899
- Rhagodidae Pocock, 1897
The taxonomy of the Protosolpugidae remains uncertain.
