Remarks
. Manning & Felder (1991) introduced subfamily names for
Callianassidae
, some of which have been more recently elevated to family rank.
Sakai (2011)
, basing his conclusions largely on his own reviews, included ten families in ‘Callianassoidea’. He restricted
Callianassidae
s.s. to two subfamilies,
Callianassinae
(incorporating
Cheraminae
Manning & Felder, 1991) and
Callichirinae
Manning & Felder, 1991. Here, we discuss species in this and two other families recognised by him,
Callianopsidae Manning & Felder, 1991
and
Gourretiidae Sakai, 1999
. Another,
Paracalliacinae Sakai, 2005
was largely ignored in Sakai’s (2011) synthesis but becomes relevant below.
