The euthycarcinoids are a mysterious group of extinct, possibly amphibious, arthropods. Like many groups of arthropods their affinities remain enigmatic. They comprise 15 species known mainly from the Late Carboniferous Coal Measures of Europe and North America, although they have been found in older rocks in Argentina and Australia. The oldest known euthycarcinoid is Apankura machu , from the Late Cambrian of Argentina, and the youngest is Euthycarcinus kessleri , from the Middle Triassic of France.
