Also included is information on their geographical distribution and the hosts with which they occur.

Superfamily CORONULOIDEA Newman & Ross, 1976 The systematic arrangement used herein follows Newman Family CHELONIBIIDAE Pilsbry, 1916 (1996) rather than Ross & Frick (2011) for reasons taken up in Hayashi (2012) in some detail. The present author Genus Chelonibia Leach, 1817 deems the subfamilies of the Cheonibiidae (Chelonibiinae, Chelonibia caretta (Spengler, 1790) Emersoniinae and Protochelonibiinae) proposed by Harzhauser et al. (2011), as well as those included of Ross & Lepas caretta Spengler, 1790: 185, plate 6, figure 5. Frick (2007, 2011), to be unnecessary because the family Astrolepas testudinaria Gray, 1825: 105. Chelonibiidae has only three genera (Chelonibia, Emersonius Balanus chelytrypetes Hinks, 1840: 333. and Protochelonibia), and they are ignored herein. Species Chelonobia caretta Darwin, 1854: 394, plate 14, figure 2. within each genus and the references within each species are Chelonibia caretta Pilsbry, 1916: 267, plate 63, figure 5, arranged alphabetically. The original naming combinations 5a.—Hayashi, 2012: 109, figures 2 & 15b; plate 1b. and known synonyms are listed and each species is entered under the current binomen, followed by the author’s name, date of publication and page number. The geographical distri- references butions are recorded for the hosts and their general geographi- Anderson, 1994: 297; Bacon, 1976: 34; Barnard, 1924: 93; cal occurence where possible (Table 1). The fossil species are Borradaile, 1903: 443; Broch, 1924a: 16; Bugoni et al., 2001: 7; indicated by † and fossil records of Coronuloidea (including Caine, 1986: 19; Daniel, 1955: 32; Darwin, 1854: 394; extant species) are listed by geological age and location Dawydoff, 1952: 129; Dobbs & Landry, 2004: 674; Farrapeira, (Table 2).
