Key to genera and species of the tribe Calyptommini Distribution data modified and updated from Petryashov (2014). Mysidae: Erythropinae with eyeplate showing no distinct median cleft, plate mainly formed by a transverse median bridge, eyes rudimentary or absent. Smooth outer margin of antennal scale ending in a tooth. Pleopods uniramous, reduced to sparsely setose rods or plates in both sexes. Telson entire, its lateral margins mostly smooth, terminal portions with spines................... Tribus Calyptommini W.M.
