Thamnocephalidae is a family of anostracan branchiopod crustaceans with wide distribution including Western Australia, Southern Africa and South America. It was originally described as a subfamily of Branchipodidae by Alpheus Spring Packard in 1883, and elevated to the rank of family by Simon in 1886.[2] Six genera are recognised, in two subfamilies:[2]
Thamnocephalinae
Thamnocephalus Packard, 1879
Carinophallus Rogers, 2006
Branchinellinae
Dendrocephalus Daday, 1908
Phallocryptus Birabén, 1951
Spiralifrons Dixon, 2010[3]
Branchinella Sayce, 1903
