Family Cephaloziaceae is frequently rearranged. For example, genetic analysis suggests that genus Hygrobiella should be moved out of the family, and perhaps classified in a family of its own, and microscopic analysis of the morphology of Trabacellula also suggests it should be separated and made into a new family.
