Taxonomic remark IRMNG presently follows West et al., 2013, who place this family in order Hadromerida; by contrast, WoRMS (2023 version) places it in order Clionaida (record last edited by R. van Soest, 2015 and N. Boury-Esnault, 2018). From West et al.: Based on Acanthochaetetes wellsi, the only known living representative of the genus, Hartman and Goreau (1975) and Hartman (1982) suggested the sclerosponge family Acanthochaetetidae be classified in a separate order, Tabulospongida. This suggestion is no longer accepted as it overemphasizes the presence of a calcareous skeleton; Acanthochaetetes is now assigned to the Hadromerida (Rützler & Vacelet, 2002). [details]
