The Spinicaudata (spiny clam shrimp) are a large group of freshwater, bivalved branchiopod crustaceans in need of taxonomic revision. Herein, the extant Spinicaudata families and genera are defined and diagnosed according to modern standards. An annotated catalogue of the Spinicaudata taxa is presented with synonyms. More than 747 spinicaudatan taxa are presented, of which 215 are considered valid families, genera and species. Chresonyms are provided for taxa redescribed according to modern standards. It is hoped that this catalogue will provide a basis for further taxonomic revision and phylogenetic work within the Spinicaudata.
背甲目（刺蚌虾）是一大类需要进行分类修订的淡水双瓣鳃足类甲壳动物。在此，现存的背甲目科和属依据现代标准进行了定义和诊断。给出了一份带有同义词的背甲目分类单元注释目录。列出了747多个背甲目分类单元，其中215个被视为有效的科、属和种。为根据现代标准重新描述的分类单元提供了异名。希望本目录能为背甲目内进一步的分类修订和系统发育研究提供基础。
