Platyctenidae is a family of ctenophores belonging to the order Platyctenida.[1][2]
Formerly, Tjalfiella Mortensen was classified in this family[3] but appears now to be a member of ist own family Tjalfiellidae.[4] World Register of Marine Species (WoRMS) does not list any (remaining) members of the family (as of Nov. 2021), though indicating it as validly published.[2] Therefore it remains unclear if Platyctenidae might be a synonym of Tjalfiellidae.
