Traditionally, this taxon contained the single genus Matuta, and was considered a subfamily of the Calappidae.
Now, the group is ranked as a family and six genera (four extant and two fossil) are now recognised.
Although placed in the Calappoidea, it is not clear that Matutidae and Calappidae are closely related.
