Bradford-Grieve J.M., (2002 onwards). Key to calanoid copepod families. Version 1 : 2 oct 2002. http://www.crustacea.net/crustace/calanoida/index.htm
Rem.: Geletin (1976) defines 3 sub-families: Eucalaninae (sensu stricto); Rhincalaninae , Subeucalaninae.
The genus Rhincalanus has become the type of the family Rhincalanidae.
3 G.: Eucalanus, Pareucalanus, Subeucalanus.
Eucalaninae Giesbrecht, 1892
Ref.: Giesbrecht, 1892 (p.45); Esterly, 1905 (p.130); Geletin, 1976 (p.92, Rev.)
Rem.: 2 G.: Eucalanus, Pareucalanus
Rhincalaninae Geletin, 1976
Ref.: Geletin, 1976 (p.92)
Rem.: Brodsky & al., 1983 (p.203) n'admettent pas la création de cette sous- famille. Boxshall & Halsey (2004, p.116) considèrent cette sous-famille comme une vraie famille à l'intérieur des Eucalanoida. Cf. Rhincalanidae
Subeucalaninae Geletin, 1976
Ref.: Geletin, 1976 (p.92)
Rem.: Cette sous-famille n'est pas retenue par Brodsky & al., 1983 (p.203).
1 G.: Subeucalanus
(1) Eucalanus Dana, 1852 ( Eucalaninae )

Rem.: Type: Calanus elongatus (Dana,1849).
Not all authors follow Geletin (1976) in his defenition of the genera Pareucalanus and Subeucalanus (Brodsky & al., 1983, p.203).
Fleminger (1973) splits up 17 spp. into 4 groups: 'subtenuis', 'pileatus', 'elongatus', 'attenuatus'.
17 spp. + 1 debated (E. pseudattenuatus ) + 2 to specify (E. muticus , E. peruanus ) + 3 very doubtful.
Bradford-Grieve (1994) rehabilitates the two genera Pareucalanus and Subeucalanus.
The genus Eucalanus comprises 7 spp. + 1 unidentified.
(2) Pareucalanus Geletin, 1976 ( Eucalaninae )
Ref.: Geletin, 1976 (p.91); Razouls, 1982 (p.82, 98); 1993 (p.309); Bradford-Grieve, (p.80, Déf.); Bradford-Grieve & al., 1999 (p.912, pp. Key); Boxshall & Halsey, 2004 (p.116); Mulyadi, 2004 (p.106, Def.); Vives & Shmeleva, 2007 (p.872)
Rem.: type: Paracalanus attenuatus Dana,1849.
Brodsky & al., 1983 (p.203) do not acknowledge the creation of this genus. The genus is confirmed by Bradford-Grieve (1994) 6 spp.
Rhincalanus Dana, 1852
Syn.: Calanus (part.) : Dana,1846
Ref.: Giesbrecht, 1892 (p.47, 152); Boxshall & Halsey, 2004 (p.116: Rem.)
Rem.: Cf. Rhincalanidae.
(3) Subeucalanus Geletin, 1976
Ref.: Geletin, 1976 (p.91); Razouls, 1982 (p.98); 1993 (p.309); Bradford-Grieve, 1994 (p.87); Bradford-Grieve & al., 1999 (p.912, spp. Key); Boxshall & Halsey, 2004 (p.116); Mulyadi, 2004 (p.106, Def.): Vives & Shmeleva, 2007 (p.874, spp. Key)
Rem.: type: Eucalanus subtenuis Giesbrecht,1888. D'après Geletin, 1976 (p.91):
Les individus sont les moins transparens et les plus petits parmi les Eucalanidae, exception de S.longipes Matthews (3.5-5.0 mm).
Urosome de 3 segments.
Exopodite 1 et 2 de A2 soudés.
Endopodite de Md articculé au tiers ou au quart supérieur du basipodite qui compte 3 ou 0 soies.
Mx1 ne comporte que 2 lobes internes (caractère générique).
P5 absente chez la femelle. Le mâle ne présente que la P5 gauche (caractère générique).
Brodsky & al. (1983, p.203) do not acknowledge the creation of this genus. Bradford-Grieve (1994) affirms the validity of the genus. 8 spp.
