Kimulidae is a small neotropical family of the harvestman infraorder Grassatores with about thirty described species.
These brown harvestmen dwell in soil and litter.
Whereas most species occur in Venezuela, Colombia and the West Indies, the isolated species Tegipiolus pachypus (which was formerly in Zalmoxidae) is found in northeastern Brazil. This species also differs from the others morphologically. Another Brazilian species, Microminua soerenseni Rio de Janeiro, does not belong to this family.
Kimulidae are probably closely related to Escadabiidae.
This family was originally called Minuidae, but as the name of the type genus proved invalid, the family name needed a replacement.
