Poore, G.C.B., Dworschak, P.C., Robles, R., Mantelatto, F., and Felder, D.L. 2019. A new classification of Callianassidae and related families (Crustacea: Decapoda: Axiidea) derived from a molecular phylogeny with morphological support. Memoirs of Museum Victoria 78: 73–146. The classification of the families and genera of Callianassidae and related families (Crustacea: Decapoda: Axiidea) is significantly revised based on the results of a separately published molecular phylogeny with morphological support. Seven families are recognised: Anacalliacidae Manning and Felder, 1991; Callianassidae Dana, 1852; Callianopsidae Manning and Felder, 1991; Callichiridae Manning and Felder, 1991; Ctenochelidae Manning and Felder, 1991; Eucalliacidae Manning and Felder, 1991; and Paracalliacidae Sakai, 2005. The families comprise 53 genera, 17 new: Anacalliacidae—Anacalliax de Saint Laurent, 1973.
