Genus Microcassiope Guinot, 1967 View in CoL View at ENA

Type species. Xanthodes rufopunctatus A. Milne-Edwards, 1869 [Type locality: Cape Saint-Vincent and Maio; junior synonym of Xantho minor Dana, 1852a View in CoL ].

Remarks. Microcassiope currently encompass four species, namely: M. minor (Dana, 1852) [ Xantho ] (AA), M. orientalis Takeda & Miyake, 1969 (IWP), M. taboguillensis ( Rathbun, 1907) [ Micropanope ] (EP) and M. xanthusii ( Stimpson, 1871b) [ Xanthodes ] (EP). We follow Manning & Holthuis (1981) in considering M. granulimana ( Stimpson, 1871a) [ Pilumnus ] conspecific with M. minor (see below under M. minor ).
