For Fleminger (1983) this genus occupies a highly derived position within the Spinocalanidae. Schulz (1989) points out the similarities between Isaacsicalanus and Teneriforma.

(3) Kunihulsea Schulz, 1992
Rem.: Type: Kunihulsea arabica Schulz,1992. Total: 2 spp.

Diagnosis from Schulz (1992, p.176) :
Very small body length .
- Female with short urosome about 1/3 length of prosome.
- Rostrum a single short cone.
- A1 reaching to caudal rami; segments 24 and 25 fused.
- Exopod of A2 about as long as endopod.
- Lobe 3 of Mx1 smaller than lobe 2.
- Mxp with 3 medial setae on basis; endopodal segments 1 to 4 armed with 2 setae each.
- P1 exopodal segment 1 without outer spine; endopod particularly long, with small outer lobe.
- P2 to P4 with numbers of segments and setae typical of the family; exo- and endopods without posterior spines.
- Male (juvenil CV) with left-handed P5.

For Schulz (1992, p.177) this genus shows affinities to spinocalanids: 1- 4 outer setae on the 3rd exopodal segment of P1; 2- 5 setae on the 3rd exopodal segment of P2; 3- separation of pedigers 1 and 2 as well as pedigers 4 and 5; 4- the shape of the lateral posterior corner of pediger 5; 5- the conical undivided rostrum, are characters reminiscent of most or at least some spinocalanid genera, respectively. Among Spinocalanoidae, the genus might occupy a phylogenetic position between the three basic genera, Monaciulla, Spinocalanus, Mimocalanus, and the two most derived taxa Teneriforma, Isaacsicalanus. The conical rostrum as a synapomorphy seems to link Kunihulsea with Damkaeria and the two latter genera, provided the origin of this structure is monophyletic within the Spinocalanoidea.
Other plesiomorphic characters found in both Kunihulsea and Damkaeria may prove a grouping prior to the splitting off from the stem leading to Teneriforma and Isaacsicalanus: (a) 14 (Damkaeria) and 13 setae (Kunihulsea), but 11 (Teneriforma), respectively, on the 1st inner lobe (arthrite) of Mx1, and (b) 8 and 7 (5) setae on the syncoxa of Mxp, and 3 medial setae (2 in Teneriforma) on the basis of Mxp.
However, any definite placement of Kunihulsea and Damkaeria must await future assessement when exact setal armament of the mouth appendages has been verified.

Diagnosis adult female from Schulz (2996, p.595) :
- Posterior corner of prosome only slightly produced posteriorly to form rounded lobe;
- Urosome short, less than1/3 length of prosome.
- Rosytum absent.
- Exopod of A2 with 10 setae, with 2nd segment bearing 2 setae.
- Md gnathobase armed with closely spaced teeth; basis carrying 4 inner setae.
- Coxal endite of Mx1 with 5 and distal basal endite with 4 setae.
- Syncoxa of Mxp armed with 2, 3, and 3 setae; endopod with 2, 3, 3, 2, 3, and 4 setae; outer setae of both distal segments extremely long.
- P1 endopod 1-segmented, P2 2-segmented, P3 and P4 3-segmented.

- P1 endopod with 2 inner setae; outer distal spine of 1st exopodal segment absent.
- Distal endopodal segments of P2-P4 armed with 0, 2, and 2 outer setae respectively.
- Female P5 absent.

For Schulz (1996, p.600) this genus exhibits a close relationship with Mimocalanus because of a number of further synapomorphies: 1- absence of the outer seta of the caudal rami; 2- the reduced setal numbers of the A2 exopod; (10 in Mospicalanus, 8 in Mimocalanus vs plesiomorphic 12 setae); 3- only 10 (vs 11) setae on the 2nd endopod segment of Md; 4- reduced number of armature elements (11 vs 15) on the praecoxal arthrite of Mx1, and only 5 setae (vs 6) on the coxal endite; 5- absence of an outer coxal seta of Mx2, and reduced setal numvers on basis and 1st endopod segment (3 and 1 vs 4 and 2, respectively); 6- lack of a praecoxal seta on Mxp; 7- absence of the outer distal spine on the 1st exopod segment of P1.

(8) Rhinomaxillaris Grice & Hulsemann, 1967
Rem.: Type: Rhinomaxillaris bathybia Grice & Hulsemann,1967. Total: 1 sp.
Formerly included in the Bathypontiidae family.

Diagnosis based on adult female from Grice & Hulsemann (1967, p.39) :
- Head and 1st thoracic segment incompletely separate, 4th and 5th thoracic segments inccompletely separate.
- Abdomen 4-segmented.
- Anal segment longer than preceding segment and caudal rami.
- Rostrum large and obtuse;
- A1 reaching to 5th thoracic segment; segments 8 and 9, 24 and 25 fused.
- Exopod of A2 7-segmented, about 2 times the length of endopod.
- Mx1 with 2 setae on 2nd inner lobe; 5 setae on endopod and 2 setae on exopod.
- Mx2 with 5 lobes bearing 1, 1, 3, 3, and 2 setae, respectively.
- Mxp large, with long and coarse setae distally.
- P1 exopod 3-segmented and endopod 1-segmented; 1st and 2nd exopodal segments without outer spines.
- Exopods of P2-P4 broken off.
- Endopods of P2 2- or 3-segmented, of P3 and P4 3-segmented.
- 3rd endopodal segments of P3 and P4 with 6 setae.

For Grice & Hulsemann (1967, p.39) it was difficult to assign the female species Rhinomaxillaris bathybia to an existing family. The new genus is distinguished from Bathypontia (= Temorites) by the long exopod in the A2, the shape and arrangement of the teeth on the Md blade, and the absence of P5.
Rhinomaxillaris differs from Zenkevitchiella and Foxtonia in the long exopod of A2, the Md blade and the peculiar rostrum.
From Zenkevitchiella, Rhinomaxillaris is further distinguished by the absence of external spines on the 1st and 2nd exopodal segments of P1, and the absence of P5.. It differs from Foxtonia in the increased number of segments in the endopods of P2 and P3 and in the absence of spinelike setae between the bases of A1.
Rhinomaxillaris also resembles certain genera in the family Pseudocalanidae. The large and blunt rostrum, the dfused 24th and 25th segments in A1, and the absence of external spines on the 1st and 2nd exopodal segments of P1 prevent Rhinomaxillaris from being placed in this family.

Diagnosis from Bradford-Grieve (1994, p.105) :
- As for the family definition.
- All pedigerous segments separate.
- Pedigerous segment 5 prolonged, extending 0/33 times the length of the genital segment.
- Rostrum single, long, blunt cone directed backwards.
- Caudal rami symmetrical, length 2.0-2.5 times their width, longer than or equal to the anal segment.
- Male anal segment not reduced.
- A1 female extends to the anal segment, 24-segmented, segments 8-9 fused.
- Male A1 reaching the end of the caudal rami, 24-segmented, segments 8-8 fused, on the left segments 20 and 21 distinct, segment 25 not reduced.
- A2 exopod equals the endopod.; exopodal segment 1 with 1 seta, exopodal segment 2 and 3 fused, exopod segment 2 with 2 setae.
- Md with 3 setae on the inner margin of basis.
- Mx1 female with some reduction in inner lobe 3, basipod, and the endopod, where the size and number of setae are reduced; inner lobes 2 and 3 with 4 and 2 setae respectively.
- P1 basis without minute outer distal seta, with inner distal seta; exopodal segment 1 without an outer distal spine, exopodal segment 2 with an outer-edge spine; endopod with 2 terminal and 2-3 inner-edge setae.
- Surface of the swimming legs without spinules.
- Endopodal segment 2 of P2 with 1 outer-edge seta.
- endopodal segment 3 of P3 and P4 with 2 outer-edge setae.
