'''''Calvadosia''''' is a genus of stalked jellyfish in the order Stauromedusae. It is the only genus in the monotypic family '''Kishinouyeidae'''.

==Taxonomy and systematics== The family name is a tribute to Japanese cnidariologist Kamakichi Kishinouye. Mayer used the synonym ''Kishinouyea'' as a replacement name of ''Schizodiscus'', for homonymy, as the name was already used to describe a lichen genus. ''Kishinouyea'' was also used by Yoshio Ôuchi to describe a praying mantis genus that he quickly renamed ''Kishinouyeum'' in 1938, and that could be a junior synonym for ''Phyllothelys''.<ref>[http://zoologie.umh.ac.be/asef/pdf/2009_45_01%5CCompact%5CEhrmann_et_Roy_ASEF_2009_45_1_067_076_compact.pdf Taxonomy and synonymy of Phyllothelys Wood-Mason (Dictyoptera: Mantodea).
