Crustacea Inachoididae Dasygyiinae Dasygyius Microrhynchus Neorhynchus Paradasygyius nomenclature type species new subfamily

Abstract

The name for the brachyuran subfamily Dasygyiinae Holmes, 1900, recently recognised by Guinot & Van Bakel (2020) in the majoid family Inachoididae Dana, 1851, cannot be used as it is a junior synonym of Collodinae Stimpson, 1871. The present note diagnoses a new name, Paradasygyiinae subfam. nov., for the monotypic genus Paradasygyius Garth, 1958.
