Amathillopleustes Pirlot, 1934: 205 (Amathillopleustes alticoxa Pirlot, 1934 by original designation). Type species Cleonardopsis carinata K.H. Barnard, 1916 by monotypy. Diagnosis Characters of the subfamily. Species composition Cleonardopsis contains 1 species: C. carinata K.H. Barnard, 1916. Remarks K.H. Barnard (1916) described Cleonardopsis carinata from the Cape Peninsula area of South Africa. Pirlot (1934) described Amathillopleustes alticoxa from off the Mollucas in eastern Indonesia. K.H. Barnard (1916) illustrated only the pleosome and coxae 5 and 6, but particularly coxae 5 and 6 look quite different from the detailed illustrations of Pirlot (1934).
