Idoteidae Samouelle, 1819 View in CoL

Remarks. The Idoteidae comprise 22 genera ( Poore 2001; Schotte et al. 2008 onwards) but no complete synthesis has been attempted. Brusca (1984) discussed possible phylogenies of a more broadly defined Idoteidae but many of these ideas are superseded. Poore & Lew Ton (1993) dealt with nine genera from Australia and New Zealand and Poore (2001) diagnosed the family as part of a revision of Valvifera generally. Idotea festiva does not conform with any genus already diagnosed.
