Taxonomic remark In the past, the genera of Phoxocephalidae were grouped into nine subfamilies by Barnard and Drummond (1978). Over time, the status and establishment of new subfamilies were proposed and discussed to solve some questions regarding divergences between the genera (Gurjanova 1977, Barnard and Karaman 1991, Jarret and Bousfield 1994a, b). However, through cladistic analysis, Taylor and Poore (2001) failed to obtain support for the monophyly of the proposed subfamilies. According to Alonso de Pina et al. (2008), Barnard and Drummond’s division of subfamilies must not be recognized until new phylogenetic studies are done.
The current classification of Phoxocephalidae is based on purely morphological criteria (De Broyer et al. 2007, Senna and Souza-Filho 2011, Lowry and Myers 2017), grouping all genera into two subfamilies: Harpiniinae Barnard and Drummond, 1978, diagnosed mainly by pereopod 5 with a narrow basis; and Phoxocephalinae Sars, 1891, characterized by pereopod 5 with a stout basis.
