Grapsoidea sunt superfamilia cancrorum notorum, inter quam sunt multa taxa terrestria, partim terrestria (ad mare solum pro regeneratione ientia), vel limnica (aquam dulcem continenter habitantia). Alia genus notum, cui est usitatior vita, est Eriocheir sinensis.


Subphylum : Crustacea 
Ordo : Decapoda 
Infraordo : Brachyura 
Superfamilia : Grapsoidea 
Macleay, 1838

Circumscriptio Grapsidarum et Plagusiidarum retractanda est; quae Plagusiidarum saltem non est monophyletica. Similiter nonnulla genera in Sesarmidis usitate positis.[2][3][4]

Proximi Grapsoideorum cognati vivi sunt Ocypodoidea, quae quidem mutuo paraphyletici sunt, et probatum videtur Ocypodoidea in Grapsoidea disponi debere.[4]
