Suborder CYMOTHOIDA Leach, 1814

Remarks. Placement within Cymothoida follows the phylogenetic analysis of Wägele (1989) (WoRMS Editorial Board, 2023) based upon possession of five free pleonites in which the first is similar to the others and pleopods that are ovoid and rounded distally ( Brandt and Poore, 2003). Other characters of the suborder are not visible in the fossil specimen.
