Hyliidae is a family of passerine birds which contains just two species, the green hylia (Hylia prasina) and the tit hylia (Pholidornis rushiae). Physiological similarities and molecular phylogenetic studies strongly support the creation of this family. Some taxonomic authorities place the entire family in the Macrosphenidae.
