Benthopectinidae is a family of sea stars containing at least 75 species in eight genera.[1] It is the only family in the monotypic order Notomyotida.
These asteroids are deep-sea dwelling and have flexible arms. The inner dorso-lateral surface of the arms contain characteristic longitudinal muscle bands.[2] Eight genera of deep-water species make up the majority of the family benthopectinidae, and many of its members are expected to have a greater range than is currently recognized.[3]
Nine genera are recognized:[1]

深海槭海星科（學名：Benthopectinidae）是海星綱之下一個新近分離出來的目Notomyotida旗下唯一的一個科，下轄八個屬75個物種。Notomyotida旗下物種原屬显带目，命名於2009年，與柱體目/樁海星目（Paxillosida）及其他原顯帶目物種合組成顯帶總目（Valvatacea ）[4]。 所有物種皆生活於深海，有靈活的臂膀。這些臂膀的特徵是在其內背側面有縱肌帶[5]。
