Genus Cenomanocarcinus Van Straelen, 1936

Cenomanocarcinus Van Straelen, 1936: 37 .

Type species. Cenomanocarcinus inflatus Van Straelen, 1936 , by subsequent designation of Stenzel (1945: 447).

Species included. Cenomanocarcinus beardi Schweitzer, Feldmann, Fam, Hessin, Hetrick, Nyborg & Ross, 2003 , C. cantabricus n. sp., C. dissimilis Collins, 2010 , C. inflatus Van Straelen, 1936 , C. multituberculatus ( Joleaud & Hsu, 1935) , C. oklahomensis (Rathbun, 1935) , C. pierrensis ( Rathbun, 1917) , C. tenuicarinatus Collins, 2010 , and C. vanstraeleni Stenzel, 1945 .

Remarks. The genus was recently treated in detail by Vega et al. (2007a) and Guinot et al. (2008). However, those authors were unable to directly compare the closely related species, Cenomanocarcinus beardi , C. inflatus and C. vanstraeleni . We concur with Schweitzer et al. (2009: 146) in synonymising Sagittiformosus Bishop, 1988 (type: S. carabus Bishop, 1988 ) with Cenomanocarcinus . Hasaracancer Jux, 1971 , considered synonymous with Cenomanocarcinus by Guinot et al. (2008), is here interpreted as a separate genus (see below).
