Authority Email from Karl Wittmann dd 22-05-2014: Art. 35 of the ICZN (1999) states that the principle of coordination regards family-group names up to superfamily level, not beyond. Consequence is that WoRMS needs to use Mysida Boas, 1883, instead of Mysida Haworth, 1825. [details]Classification Used to be treated as suborder of the order Mysidacea, together with the suborders Lophogastrida and Stygiomysida [details]
