Families: 1 family with 9 genera and 21 species:

Family Chrysochloridae Gray 1825 (9 genera with 21 species and 27 subspecies)

Discussion: MacPhee and Novacek (1993) erected the suborder Chrysochloromorpha for golden moles, but following Simpson’s (1945:32-33) nomenclatural principles for categories above superfamilies, Chrysochloridea is the senior synonym.
