Family Axiidae Huxley, 1879 View in CoL

AXiidae HuXley, 1879: 785 View in CoL .— Poore & Collins 2009: 222 (diagnosis, synonymy).—Poore 2017: 364–365 (synonymy). Calocarididae Ortmann, 1891: 47 .

EiconaXiidae Sakai & Ohta, 2005: 69 .

EiconaXiopsididae Sakai, 2011: 289 –291.

NeoaXiidae Sakai, 2017: 504 . Syn. nov.

Remarks. We follow the family diagnosis of Poore & Collins (2009) and synonymy of Poore (2017) rather than those of Sakai (2011). The synonymy of Neoaxiidae Sakai, 2017 is justified in the discussion of the species Guyanacaris caespitosa ( Squires, 1979) , below.
