最近将一些类似角虫科的蛇尾科归入角虫科，这导致进一步重新评估其他蛇尾科是否可能是角虫科。这导致了新属和新种的发现，这些特征由一组独特的特征支持，这些特征支持了一个新的亚科——Ferdininae，该亚科最初由 Marsh 和 Price (1991) 在 Goniasteridae 中概述。历史上的蛇尾蜂科是并系的，包括几个名义上的蛇尾蜂属（例如，Fromia、Neoferdina 等）。新描述的材料导致该组中包含了六个属，其中三个属，Bathyferdina n。 gen.，Eosaster n. gen. 和 Kanakaster n. gen.，是新描述的。描述了五个属的十四个新物种。这包括Bathyferdina Aireyae n。将军，n. sp., Eosaster nadiae n.将军，n. sp.，费迪纳·梅纳·n。 sp., Kanakaster balutensis n.将军，n. sp., Kanakaster 凸面 n.将军，n. sp.，卡纳卡斯特讨论 n.将军，n. sp., Kanakaster larae n.将军，n. sp., Kanakaster plinthinos n.将军，n. sp., Kanakaster Solidus n.将军，n. sp., Neoferdina annae n. sp.，Neoferdina antigorum，n。 sp.，Neoferdina momo，n。 sp.，Neoferdina oni，n。 sp.，和 Paraferdina plakos，n。 sp。包括这些分类群的识别码、概要和描述。
Recent assignment of some goniasterid-like Ophidiasteridae into the Goniasteridae has led to further re-evaluation of other ophidiasterids as possible goniasterids. This led to the discovery of new genera and species supported by a distinctive set of characteristics which support a new subfamily, the Ferdininae, a group originally outlined by Marsh and Price ( 1991) within the Goniasteridae. The historical Ophidiasteridae is paraphyletic and includes several nominal ophidiasterid genera (e.g., Fromia, Neoferdina, etc.). Newly described material has led to the inclusion of six genera, within this group, of which three, Bathyferdina n. gen., Eosaster n. gen., and Kanakaster n. gen., are newly described. Fourteen new species in five genera are described. This includes Bathyferdina aireyae n. gen., n. sp., Eosaster nadiae n. gen., n. sp., Ferdina mena n. sp., Kanakaster balutensis n. gen., n. sp., Kanakaster convexus n. gen., n. sp., Kanakaster discus n. gen., n. sp., Kanakaster larae n. gen., n. sp., Kanakaster plinthinos n. gen., n. sp., Kanakaster solidus n. gen., n. sp., Neoferdina annae n. sp., Neoferdina antigorum, n. sp., Neoferdina momo, n. sp., Neoferdina oni, n. sp., and Paraferdina plakos, n. sp. Identification keys, synopses, and description of these taxa are included.
