Family CIROLANIDAE Dana, 1852

Remarks. There have been no recent revisions of the Cirolanidae for the tropical Western Atlantic. The only comprehensive accounts are the now dated monograph The Isopods of North America ( Richardson 1905: 81–137), and the more recent Caribbean field guide by Kensley & Schotte (1989) is also relevant. For identification of marine cirolanids recourse is still to the primary literature and databases such as WoRMS.
