Family DAIROIDIDAE Števčić, 2005 View in CoL

This family was described in 2005 by Števčić only for the genus Dairoides Stebbing. Previously , these species were considered xanthid crabs ( Barnard 1950; Kensley 1981), later parthenopids ( Sakai, 1976), rather than Eriphiidae . In accordance with Davie et al. (2015a), this family includes only one genus and three species, Dairoides kusei (Sakai) , Dairoides margaritatus Stebbing and Dairoides seafdeci Takeda & Ananpongsuk. D. margaritatus is the only species cited in the area ( Barnard 1950; Guinot 1967a,b; Kensley 1981; Stebbing 1920).
