The genus was first named and described by Benjamin Walsh in 1869.[1][2]

This genus includes the following species:[1][2]

  • Antistrophus chrysothamni Beutenmuller, 1908
  • Antistrophus jeanae Tooker and Hanks, 2004
  • Antistrophus laciniatus Gillette, 1891
  • Antistrophus lygodesmiaepisum Walsh, 1869
  • Antistrophus meganae Tooker and Hanks, 2004
  • Antistrophus minor Gillette, 1891
