Pseudozioidea is a superfamily of crabs, formerly treated in the Eriphioidea, Carpilioidea, Xanthoidea, Pilumnoidea and Goneplacoidea.[2] A number of fossils from the Eocene onwards are known from the family Pseudoziidae.[3] Eleven genera are recognised in three families:[4]
- Pilumnoididae Guinot & Macpherson, 1987
- Pilumnoides Lucas, 1844
- Planopilumnidae Serène, 1984
- Haemocinus Ng, 2003
- Planopilumnus Balss, 1933
- Platychelonion Crosnier & Guinot, 1969
- Pseudoziidae Alcock, 1898
- Archaeozius † Schweitzer, 2003
- Euryozius Miers, 1886
- Flindersoplax Davie, 1989
- Priabonocarcinus † Müller & Collins, 1991
- Pseudozius Dana, 1851
- Santeexanthus † Blow & Manning, 1996
