Subfamily Ophichthinae [details]
Taxonomic remark (as subgenus of Ophisurus). Based on style, Bleeker treated as a subgenus of Ophisurus (p. 24) and as a genus (p. 11, 36), with one species. Liuranus Günther 1870 is an unjustified emendation. (Eschmeyer). [details]
Type species as cited Leiuranus lacepedii Bleeker 1853 [details]
