Cumoniscidae

	Cumoniscidae Cumoniscidae is a family (biology), family of crustaceans in the Class (biology), class Tantulocarida, classified under the superclass (biology), superclass Multicrustacea. The family was previously known as Deoterthridae, but Cumoniscidae was determined to be senior subjective synonym. The family contains the following genera: ''Amphitantulus'' Boxshall & Vader, 1993 ''Aphotocentor'' Huys, 1991 ''Arcticotantulus'' Kornev, Tchesunov & Rybnikov, 2004 ''Boreotantulus'' Huys & Boxshall, 1988 ''Campyloxiphos'' Huys, 1991 ''Coralliotantulus'' Huys, 1991 ''Cumoniscus'' Bonnier, 1903 ''Deoterthron'' Bradford & Hewitt, 1980 ''Dicrotrichura'' Huys, 1989 ''Itoitantulus'' Huys, Ohtsuka Boxshall & Itô, 1992 ''Tantulacus'' Huys, Andersen & Kristensen, 1992 The genus ''Onceroxenus'' Boxshall & Lincoln, 1987 was previously place in this family but is now placed in the monotypic family Onceroxenidae.

	Tantulocarida Tantulocarida is a highly specialised group of parasitic crustaceans that consists of about 33 species, treated as a class in superclass Multicrustacea. They are typically ectoparasites that infest copepods, isopods, tanaids, amphipods and ostracods. Description Eyes are completely absent. Body length Members of this subclass are minute – less than in length and have a dramatic reduction in body form compared to other crustaceans, with an unsegmented, sac-like thorax and a much reduced abdomen. One tantulocarid species, ''Tantulacus dieteri'', is the world's smallest arthropod, with a total body length of only . Life cycle The tantulocarid life cycle is unique among crustaceans. The tantulus larva transforms directly from a non-feeding (lecithotrophic) and free-swimming organism into a parasite without any instars. When entering the parasitic stage much of the body, such as the muscles, degenerates, even if the body itself becomes bigger. As a parasite it is permanentl ...

	Multicrustacea The clade Multicrustacea constitutes the largest superclass of crustaceans, containing approximately four-fifths of all described crustacean species, including crabs, lobsters, crayfish, shrimp, krill, prawns, woodlice, barnacles, copepods, amphipods, mantis shrimp and others. The largest branch of multicrustacea is the class Malacostraca (see below).

	Family (biology) Family ( la, familia, plural ') is one of the eight major hierarchical taxonomic ranks in Linnaean taxonomy. It is classified between order and genus. A family may be divided into subfamilies, which are intermediate ranks between the ranks of family and genus. The official family names are Latin in origin; however, popular names are often used: for example, walnut trees and hickory trees belong to the family Juglandaceae, but that family is commonly referred to as the "walnut family". What belongs to a family—or if a described family should be recognized at all—are proposed and determined by practicing taxonomists. There are no hard rules for describing or recognizing a family, but in plants, they can be characterized on the basis of both vegetative and reproductive features of plant species. Taxonomists often take different positions about descriptions, and there may be no broad consensus across the scientific community for some time. The publishing of new data and opini ...
