Magyarcarcinidae is proposed as a new family to accommodate the genus Magyarcarcinus.

A detailed comparison with all the Goneplacoidea families and related taxa is presented. Relationship between both Tethyan and British Middle Eocene decapod faunas are herein confirmed, as well as their migration paths.
