Pseudozioidea

Pseudozioidea is a superfamily of crabs, formerly treated in the Eriphioidea, Carpilioidea, Xanthoidea, Pilumnoidea and Goneplacoidea.[2] A number of fossils from the Eocene onwards are known from the family Pseudoziidae.[3] Eleven genera are recognised in three families:[4]

  • Christmaplacidae Naruse & Ng, 2014
  • Pilumnoididae Guinot & Macpherson, 1987
  • Planopilumnidae Serène, 1984
    • Haemocinus Ng, 2003
    • Planopilumnus Balss, 1933
    • Platychelonion Crosnier & Guinot, 1969
  • Pseudoziidae Alcock, 1898
    • Archaeozius † Schweitzer, 2003
    • Euryozius Miers, 1886
    • Flindersoplax Davie, 1989
    • Priabonocarcinus † Müller & Collins, 1991
    • Pseudozius Dana, 1851
    • Santeexanthus † Blow & Manning, 1996
    • Tongapapaka † Feldmann, Schweitzer & McLaughlin, 2006
