Treatment

Suborder Cheirurina Harrington and Leanza, 1957 Superfamily Cheiruroidea Hawle and Corda, 1847 Family Pliomeridae Raymond, 1913 Subfamily Hammatocnemiinae Kielan, 1960

Remarks.— Yuan et al. (2003) gave a detailed description of Ovalocephalus primitivus ( Lu, 1974) and pointed out a remarkable similarity in ontogenetic development with that of Pliomerina Chugaeva, 1958 ( Edgecombe et al. 1999). Their assignment of Hammatocnemiinae , as a separate subfamily, within the family Pliomeridae is accepted here.
