Diagnoses and illustrated keys are provided for eight families and 124 genera of the Isopoda suborder Sphaeromatidea. Paravireiidae fam. nov. is erected for the genus Paravireia Chilton, 1925. The ecology and distribution of each taxon are discussed with citation of literature critical for further investigation and identification to species.
