Жуки-ощупники (Pselaphinae) по современной классификации с 1995 года (Newton and Thayer, 1995) рассматриваются в ранге подсемейства в составе семейства Staphylinidae. В мировой фауне насчитывается около 1000 родов и до 10 000 видов. Ранее эта группа жуков была оригинально описана и продолжительное время рассматривалась как самостоятельное семейство Pselaphidae.
Выделяют надтрибы (ранее подсемейства в составе Pselaphidae) Batrisitae (трибы Amauropini — Batrisini) — Clavigeritae (Clavigerini — Colilodionini — Tiracerini) — Euplectitae (Bythinoplectini — Dimerini — Euplectini — Jubini — Mayetiini — Metopiasini — Trichonychini — Trogastrini) — Faronitae (Faronini) — Goniaceritae (Brachyglutini — Bythinini — Proterini — Speleobamini — Tychini — Valdini) — Pselaphitae (Arhytodini — Ceophyllini — Ctenistini — Pselaphini — Tmesiphorini — Tyrini — Hybocephalini — Attapseniini — Pachygastrodini — Odontalgini).
