Taxonomy There is no general agreement over the definition of genera in this family. Whereas Tevesz (1977) accepted two genera, Limopsis and Empleconia Dall 1908, Oliver (1981) recognised only Limopsis despite arranging the various Recent species into 13 morphological groups. Coan et al. (2000) accepted Limopsis, Empleconia and Nipponolimopsis Habe 1951, thus assigning generic status to former subgenera. Beu (2006) again accepted the only genus Limopsis. Huber (2010) acknowledged the morphological groups distinguished by Oliver, but treated them as subgenera and added two further new subgenera. This was challenged by Janssen (2015) who argued that "As long as no molecular studies are available which could demonstrate natural relationships among species groups, conchologically separable groups should be treated as distinct on generic level". This is here followed for the genus-group taxa which have been formally raised to genus level by recent authors, whereas others so far used only at subgeneric level are left in Limopsis until forthcoming authors address their placement.
