Taxonomic remark Heegaard (1966) established a new family Sciaenophilidae based on his interpretation that only the first pedierous remnant was fused with the cephalothra, the second and.third segments remaining separate from it. However, the first three pedigerous segments are fused to the cephalothorax as in other genera of the caligids, and therefore the family proposed by Heegard cannot be condsidered valid. Dojire 1983. p. 327-332, and considers it a Caligidae [details]
