Authority As noted by Rouse & Pleijel (2001) the author of the first usage as a family should be Kinberg (1856), not Malmgren (1867). Kinberg used Family "Sigalionina" [sic] based on Sigalion and included Sthenelais and Sigalion. Despite the 'ina' spelling Kinberg intended the name at family-level, not subfamily level. Malmgren (1867: 16) used the corrected spelling "Sigalionidae" which he indicated "= Sigalionina et Pholoina Knbg". [details]
Classification includes former separated families Peisidicidae (aka Pholoididae) as a synonym, and families Pisionidae and Pholoidae reduced in rank to a subfamilies of Sigalionidae, [details]
