Status Kollmann (2005, p. 15) rejected the subdivision of Cassiopidae by Mennessier (1984) and considered the taxa Araratella, Diglauconia, Mesoglauconia, Triglauconia, Quadriglauconia, Hexaglauconia and Pentaglauconia as synonyms of Cassiope. However, on p. 165 he used the genus Mesoglauconia as valid. [details]
