Dairoididae Stevcic 2005

Description

Family DAIROIDIDAE Števčić, 2005

This family was described in 2005 by Števčić only for the genus Dairoides Stebbing. Previously, these species were considered xanthid crabs (Barnard 1950; Kensley 1981), later parthenopids (Sakai, 1976), rather than Eriphiidae. In accordance with Davie et al. (2015a), this family includes only one genus and three species, Dairoides kusei (Sakai), Dairoides margaritatus Stebbing and Dairoides seafdeci Takeda & Ananpongsuk. D. margaritatus is the only species cited in the area (Barnard 1950; Guinot 1967a,b; Kensley 1981; Stebbing 1920).
