This section, tribe, or legion contains at present the single 

 family Lithodidse. Henderson makes it section A. of the Paguridea. 

 Boas (Vidensk. Selsk. Skr., 6. Raekke Nat. ogmath. Afd. i. p. 110, 

 1880) includes in the ' Paguroiderne ' Pagurus, Ccenobita, Birgus, 

 Lithodes, and the related forms. Bouvier divides the great family 

 of the Pagurides into 3 subfamilies — the Pagurines, Lithodines, 

 Lomisines.

The genera and species now included in this family are 

 numerous, and have recently been made the subject of important 

 discussions by Benedict, Faxon, and others, but especially Professor 

 Bouvier's essay on their classification, above cited, will be fouud to 

 throw light upon them all. He bestows high praise on the work 

 of Stimpson, 1859, and the papers which appeared between 1849 

 and 1853 by J. F. Brandt, from whom he adopts the division 

 of the Lithodina into the Hapalogastrica and Ostracogastrica, 

 though not accepting his view that the Lomina might be a link 

 between those two divisions.
