The Selenidioididae are a family of parasitic alveolates in the phylum Apicomplexa. Species in this order infect marine invertebrates.
The order Archigregarinorida was redefined by Levine in 1971[1] and divided into two families: Exoschizonidae and Selenidioididae.
There are seven genera and 74 species recognised in this family.
