Kanoshia is a genus of trilobites in the order Phacopida (family Pliomeridae), that existed during the middle Ordovician in what is now Utah, USA. It was described by Harrington in 1957, and the type species is Kanoshia kanoshensis, which was originally described under the genus Pseudomera by Hintze in 1953. It also contains the species K. depressus and K. reticulata. The generic name is derived from the type species' epithet, which in turn is derived from the name of the type locality, the Kanosh Formation. [1]
Boeckops is a genus of trilobites in the order Phacopida, which existed in what is now the Czech Republic. It was described by Chlupac in 1972, and the type species is Boeckops boecki, which was originally described as Phacops boecki by Hawle and Corda in 1847. Boeckops is also been discriped from the lower Devonian of Morocco and Algeria. The Genus Boeckops is interpreted as intermediate from between the traditional genus concept of Phacops and Reedops. The Genus Boeckops is regarded as problematic or difficult by McKellar et Chatterton 2009.

It was described by Salter in 1865, and the type species is Burmeisteria herschelii, which was originally described under the genus Homalonotus by Murchison in 1839. It also contains the species B. accraensis, B. acuminata, and B. noticus. The type locality was the Bokkeveld Group.

Courtessolium is a genus of trilobites in the order Phacopida that existed during the lower Ordovician in what is now France. It was described by Pribyl and Vanek in 1985, and the type species is Courtessolium prepater, which was originally described under the genus Pateraspis by Courtessole and Pillet in 1975, and was later renamed under the genus Pseudosphaerexochus. The new generic name, Courtessolium, honours one of the original authors of the species.

Curriella is a genus of trilobites in the order Phacopida, that existed during the lower Silurian in what is now Scotland. It was described by Lamont in 1978, and the type species is Curriella newlandensis; the species epithet was derived from the type location, the Newlands Formation. It also contains the species C. clancyi.
Demeterops is a genus of trilobites in the order Phacopida, that existed during the lower Ordovician in what is now the United States. It was described by Pribyl and Vanek in 1985, and the type species is Demeterops loella, which was originally described as a dubious species in the genus Pilekia by Demeter, in 1973. The new generic name honours the species' original author. The type locality was the Fillmore Formation in Utah.
Digonus is a genus of trilobites in the order Phacopida, that existed during the lower Devonian in what is now Germany. It was described by Gurich in 1909, and the type species is Digonus gigas, which was originally described under the genus Homalonotus by Roemer in 1843. It also contains the species Digonus accraensis and Digonus noticus, Digonus vialai, and Digonus zemmourensis. The type locality was in the Harz mountains.
