The Parapaguridae are a family of marine hermit crabs from deep waters. Instead of carrying empty gastropod shells like other hermit crabs, they carry colonies of dozen or more sea anemones or zoanthids.[2] Some genera, such as Bivalvopagurus and Tylaspis, do not inhabit shells.[3] The following genera are included:[4]
- Bivalvopagurus Lemaitre, 1993
- Fraaije, Mychko, Barsukov & Jagt, 2023 Lemaitre, 1996
- Smith, 1883 Tsunogaipagurus
- Parapagurus Osawa, 1995
- Oncopagurus Smith, 1879
- Henderson, 1885 Typhlopagurus
- Probeebei de Saint Laurent, 1972
- †Mutotylaspis Lemaitre, 1996
- Boone, 1926 Strobopagurus
- Paragiopagurus Lemaitre, 1989
- Tylaspis Sympagurus
