Cyclopteridae Bonaparte, 1831: 96 View in CoL (type genus: Cyclopterus Linnaeus, 1758 View in CoL ).

Diagnosis (includes autapomorphies only; see osteological features under “Characters supporting the monophyly of Cyclopteridae ” for other diagnostic characters). Ethmoid situated posteromesial to lateral ethmoid; cartilaginous process present between ceratohyal and epihyal; paired central cartilages present; fourth ceratobranchial widely separated from central cartilages; dorsal process on pelvis present; first two or three abdominal vertebrae each having a single pair of neural spines and lacking a neural arch; dorsal and anal stays cartilaginous; second preural centrum broad.

Classification of Cyclopteridae . The following classification of the family Cyclopteridae , including three (one new) subfamilies and four genera, is proposed on the basis of the phylogenetic relationships reconstructed in the present study:
