Taxonomy
Cunearca was named by Dall (1898) [Sepkoski's age data: T Eo-m R Sepkoski's reference number: 1112]. It is extant.
It was reranked as Scapharca (Cunearca) by Maury (1917) and Moore (1983); it was reranked as Arca (Cunearca) by Pilsbry and Olsson (1941); it was reranked as Anadara (Cunearca) by Reinhart (1943), DuBar (1958), Jung (1965), da Silva Forti (1969), Perrilliat (1992), Todd (2001) and Rosenberg et al. (2006); it was reranked as Diluvarca (Cunearca) by Gardner (1947).
It was assigned to Arca by Pilsbry and Olsson (1941); to Diluvarca by Gardner (1947); to Scapharca by Maury (1917) and Moore (1983); to Anadarinae by Vokes (1980) and Ward (1992); to Arcoida by Sepkoski (2002); to Anadara by Reinhart (1943), DuBar (1958), Jung (1965), da Silva Forti (1969), Perrilliat (1992), Todd (2001) and Rosenberg et al. (2006); and to Cunearcidae by Bouchet et al. (2010).
