This review of the family Loxoconchidae (Crustacea; Ostracoda) deals principally with six genera that have living representatives in European waters, including the Mediterranean and the Black Sea. These are Loxoconcha s.s., three genera recently established for species formerly placed in Loxoconcha (Lindisfarnia, Sagmatocythere and Bonnyannella), Hirschmannia and Elofsonia. Revised diagnoses are given for these genera and their type-species are fully illustrated together for the first time. In addition, comments are made on the stratigraphic ranges, world distribution and palaeoecological significance of each genus.
Characters useful in the differentiation of these and other loxoconchid genera are discussed.
More than 30 Recent European ‘Loxoconcha’ species are considered on the basis of published descriptions and illustrations. They are re-assigned to other genera where necessary, as are a number of fossil species.
