Classification Lévi (1952) erected this genus to distinguish species with echinating acanthostyles, from Acarnus species lacking these spicules. Van Soest (1984: 60) reduced the genus to subgenus status to acknowledge the shared possession of the unique cladotylotes. Hooper (1986) demonstrated in a cladistic analysis that species of Acarnus sharing echinating acanthostyles do not form a monophyletic group (nor did the species without echinating acanthostyles). This led to abandonment of the subgeneric status of Acanthacarnus and its current status as a junior synonym of Acarnus. [details]
