Archostemata is a small suborder, containing one superfamily, Cupedoidea, and only 3 families: Cupedidae, Micromalthidae, and Ommatidae (Lawrence and Britton, 1994).
As with Archostemata and Myxophaga, it consists of just one superfamily, Caraboidea, but its 9 families contain a significantly greater diversity of species.
The authors themselves were skeptical of their results, noting that the smaller suborders were minimally sampled and needed to be better represented in future DNA sampling.
