Family Calanticidae Zevina, 1978 View in CoL View at ENA

Remarks. The Calanticidae includes 10 extant and five extinct genera (Newman 1996, Jones 1998, Young 2003), the most generalized of which, Scillaelepas , was known from the fossil record ( Seguenza, 1876) before a living representative was discovered in the deep-sea ( Aurivillius, 1894). As will be seen below, the calanticid reported upon herein belongs to Calantica , a genus that has diverged little from the stem form.
