Family Astrocoeniidae Tomes, 1883 View in CoL
Remarks. In general, authors have credited the authorship of the family Astrocoeniidae to Koby (1889). However, the fact has been largely overlooked that Tomes (1883, p. 557; “Subfamily Astrocoeninae ”) already used the genus Astrocoenia to create the family-level taxon Astrocoeniinae, giving him priority of authorship of each family-level taxon based on this type genus.
