Claim: Diplosentidae is a family of parasitic worms that Golvan, who placed it into this family, also created, in 1969, the Allorhadinorhynchinae, which is the only species and thus the type species of the genus Allorhadinorhynchus. which parasitizes the Japanese halfbeak (Hyporhamphus sajori) and has two cement glands and trunk spines.
Evidence: Diplosentidae is a family of parasitic worms from the order Echinorhynchida. in 1978, added Golvanorhynchus, Amin and Sey in 1996 added Slendrorhynchus and Salgado-Maldonado and Santos added Amapacanthus in 2000 all within the Allorhadinorhynchinae subfamily. However, two these genera (Golvanorhynchus and Slendrorhynchus) has modified the concept of the family to include genera with more than two cement glands.
