We took a step towards increasing the taxonomic resolution of Cambaridae by investigating a group of primary burrowing crayfishes which were historically part of the Cambarus subgenera Lacunicambarus Hobbs, 1969 and Tubericambarus Jezerinac, 1993. Based on our results and on unique morphological and ecological characteristics, we elevate Lacunicambarus to generic rank and redescribed the devil crayfish, Lacunicambarus diogenes.
