Description Defined in a key as Crochets all simple, with a distinct subapical spur or spine. Branchiae numerous, in a U-shaped group
Etymology Chamberlin (1919) derived Balanochaeta from two Greek words meaning 'clasp/snap' and chaeta
Taxonomy Chamberlin (1919: 397) created a key to Flabelligeridae genera, which he used as the structure briefly to define six new...

Taxonomy Chamberlin (1919: 397) created a key to Flabelligeridae genera, which he used as the structure briefly to define six new genera, each with a type genus given as a footnote, including Balanochaeta, with type genus Trophonia eruca Claparede. Hartman catalogue and Fauchald (1977) list Balanochaeta as a synonym of Pherusa, but Day (1973) and Salazar-Vallejo (2011) included it under Piromis [details]
