cladistic analysis of the old Domicola amphipods, resulting in a completely new
classification of the group; this classification will be presented separately
elsewhere on the amphipod website. The paper needs thorough study for full
appraisal; here only the new taxa are enumerated; many existing taxa also have
restricted or extended contents in this classification.
The Unciolidae fam. nov. belong within the Aoridea; this family is divided into
two subfamilies, both new, the Unciolinae (Unciola +13) and the
Acuminodeutopinae (Acuminodeutopus, Rudilemboides and Wombalana). The
Chevalioidea are a new monotypic superfamily, consisting of the single family
and genus Chevaliidae and Chevalia. In the Ampithoidae the subfamily
Exampithoinae is new; it consists of the genera Exampithoe and Melanesius. In
the family Corophiidae, as here conceived, there are two subfamilies, the
Corophiinae and the Protomedeiinae n. subfam. . The Corophiinae are further
subdivided in the tribes Corophiini, Haplocheirini n. tribe (with the genera
Haplocheira, Anonychocheirus, Kuphocheira and Leptocheirus), and
Paracorophiini n. tribe (with the genera Paracorophium, Chaetocorophium and
Stenocorophium.) The Protomedeiinae contain the genera Protomedeia,
Cheirimedeia, Cheiriphotis, Goesia, and Pareurystheus.
The Caprellida are divided into 6 superfamilies, i.e. the Aetiopedesoidea n.
superfam. , the Caprelloidea, the Isaeoidea, the Microprotopodidea n. superfam.,

A. ALPHABETIC LIST
B. SYSTEMATIC LIST
In this list the results of the recent pivotal paper by Myers & Lowry (2003) have
been incorporated, and the corophioid amphipods have been reclassified. The
families are once again listed in alphabetical order (This may be scientifically
somewhat doubtful, but eases retrieval of data, as long as there is little
agreement on the right classification and phylogeny of the Amphipoda). The
Hyperiidea are still grouped together, as are the Lysianassoidea.
