Subfamily Lithoglyptinae Aurivillius, 1892

Lithoglyptidae Aurivillius, 1892 View in CoL nom. trans. herein.

The Lithoglyptinae has been proposed to accommodate Lithoglyptes View in CoL s.l. and Balanodytes. In the following we will propose that the former be subdivided into Lithoglyptes View in CoL s.s. and two new genera, Auritoglyptes gen. nov. and Armatoglyptes gen. nov., the diagnostic characteristics of which accompany the discussion of each genus.

(N.B., the opening to the mantle cavity in acrothoracicans is guarded by “apertural lips”, but since they consist of a pair of hard chitinous bars and a comb collar, they are effectively an operculum and will be referred to as such herein).
