【Abstract】 The family Pionidae is one of families abundant in species in Superfamily Hygrobatoidea, Hydrachnidia. The phylogenetic relationships within the family is obscure and the taxonomic frame is artificial and issuable at present, while the fauna of the group worldwide is remained to understand. This paper summarizes the historical development and present progress in systematic and bionomic study and reviews the taxonomy of Chinese fauna in the family with a species list known from China.更多还原
