There are three recognized subgenera, Macaronapaeus Kobelt, 1899, Napaeus Albers, 1850 and Napaeinus Hesse, 1933.[2]

Species within the genus Napaeus include 18 species on the Tenerife,[4] 17 species[4] on the La Gomera and others. Additionally, 11 new species from the Canary Islands were described in 2011.[2][6][7]
