FAMILY HETERALEPADIDAE View in CoL View at ENA NILSSON- CANTELL, 1921 AMENDED
Diagnosis: Monophyletic by molecular analyses. Capitular plates much reduced and often with large part of uncalcified capitulum exposed.
Comment: All contained species are devoid of shell plates, or ( Koleolepas ) only cuticular rudiments ( Hosie, 2014), but such reduction also evolved convergently within some species of the Poecilasmatidae . Based on DNA data provided by Yamamori & Kato (2020), we include the Koleolepas from the now abandoned Koleolepadidae Hiro, 1933 .
Alepas Rang, 1829 (five species)
Heteralepas Pilsbry, 1907 View in CoL (25 species)
Koleolepas Stebbing, 1900 (three species)
Paralepas Pilsbry, 1907 View in CoL (29 species)
