Subfamily BERNDTIINAE Utinomii, 1950
Berndtiidae Utinomi, 1950: 457.
Weltneriinae Kolbasov & Newman, 2005: 40.
Diagnosis. Females with five pairs of terminal cirri. Caudal appendages present in Weltneria , but not in Berndtia .
Remarks. Currently there are two genera described from this monophyletic subfamily, Berndtia Utinomi, 1950 and Weltneria . No species of Berndtia are reported from Africa ( Kolbasov, 2009), however further investigation of coral species could potentially reveal their presence, as corals are their preferred substrate ( Chan, Hsieh & Kolbasov, 2014; Chan et al., 2014).
