Cytherella

**Cytherella ** er en av seks slekter i familien Cytherellidae, som igjen er den eneste familie i ordenen **Platycopida ** av muslingkreps - små krepsdyr. Denne slekten består formelt av 16 arter, men det er totalt beskrevet og foreslått et 50-talls arter i slekten.

De 6 slektene i hele Platycopida-gruppen har minst 80 kjente arter, alt etter hvilke slekter man regner inn i gruppen. Det har tidvis vært foreslått at gruppen inngår i ordenen Podocopida, men dette oppfattes (2013) snarere som en søsterorden. 

Fem av artene ble oppdaget i 1998 fra det tyske forskningsskipet *Sonne* i Tasmanhavet, sørvest for New Zealand.

## Nærmere taksonomisk plassering
Taksonomien av muslingkreps er omstridt og inneholder vanskelig systamiserte grupper. Skillet mellom gruppnene innenfor klassen muslingkreps er basert på  morfologi snarere enn molekylær analyse, og det er mulig at muslingkreps-gruppen er parafyletisk og bør deles. Mye av den tidlige forskningen, inklusive beskrivelsen av Myodocopa-gruppen, er gjort av den norske marinbiologen og havforskeren Georg Ossian Sars. Oversikten nedenfor følger den nyeste taksonomiske plasseingen i henhold til *WoRMS*-databasen:
