The infraorder Astacidea comprises five extant superfamilies, two of crayfish (Astacoidea and Parastacoidea), one of true lobsters (Nephropoidea), one of reef lobsters (the genus Enoplometopus), and a number of fossil taxa. [6] As of 2009, the group contains 782 recognised species, over 400 of which are in the crayfish family Cambaridae. [6]
