| Notes |
Synonymy: Wiklund et al. (2005) suggested that on molecular evidence "Pisione and Pholoe are positioned within Sigalionidae, suggesting that both family names Pisionidae and Pholoidae should be treated as junior synonyms of Sigalionidae." Struck et al (2005) similarly concluded Pisionidae, Pholoidae, and Sigalionidae are closely related. Norlinder et al. (2012) decided to continue to keep Pholoidae separate from Sigalionidae, but synonymised Pisionidae. [details] Synonymy: Genus Pareupholoe Hartmann-Schröder, 1962, erected in Sigalionidae, indirectly transfers to Pholoidae as Pareupholoe fimbriata is a synonym of Pholoides asperus.
