The single known genus and species, Myrmecobius fasciatus, occurred in suitable areas from southwestern Western Australia through northern South Australia to southwestern New South Wales (Ride 1970). This genus sometimes has been placed in the family Dasyuridae, but the sum of available information indicates that it represents a distinct family (Archer and Kirsch 1977).
