Remarks: The assignment of the genus Oloughlinia (nom. nov. pro Clarkiella Heding in Heding & Panning, 1954) to the family Sclerodactylidae (vs. Cucumariidae vs. Cladolabidae) is under discussion (cf. O’Loughlin 2009, pp. 4–6; O’Loughlin et al. 2011, p. 267; Smirnov 2012, p. 820), especially since the Sclerodactylidae and Cucumariidae are evidently polyphyletic (e.g. Miller et al. 2017, fig. 4). Martins & Tavares (2022, p. 569), based on a re-examination of the type-material at ZMUC and holotype slides at the MNHN listed Clarkiella as member of the Subfamily Cladolabinae , which is followed here.
