Ectopsocus is a genus of barklice including some of the most widespread psocid species not directly associated with humans. Males have a clunium bearing a row of teeth or other ornamentation; females have all three pairs of gonapophyses present and the subgenital plate is usually bilobed and setose (New & Lienhard 2007). Wings have dark spots at the ends of veins in the cosmopolitan species E. briggsi and E. californicus (Schmidt & New 2008).
