Reticuloceratidae is one of five families of the Gastrioceratoidea superfamily. They are an extinct group of ammonoid, which are shelled cephalopods related to squids, belemnites, octopuses, and cuttlefish, and more distantly to the nautiloids.

Goniatites is a genus of extinct cephalopods belonging to the family Goniatitidae, included in the superfamily Goniatitaceae. Hibernicoceras and Hypergoniatites are among related genera.

Axinolobus is a genus belonging to the Axinolobidae family. They are an extinct group of ammonoid, which are shelled cephalopods related to squids, belemnites, octopuses, and cuttlefish, and more distantly to the nautiloids.

Asturoceras is an extinct late Paleozoic ammonoid cephalopod genus belonging to the Goniatitida, named by Ruzhencev and Bogoslovskaya in 1969.

Aristoceras is a Late Paleozoic goniatitid genus included in the Goniatitina suborder in which the lobes of the external suture are irregularly serrate.

Uraloceras is an ammonoid cephalopod genus belonging to the goniatitid family Paragastrioceratidae. The genus was named by Ruzhencev 1936 and is a jr. synonym of Pseudogastrioceras Spath 1930 according to Miller, Furnish and Schindeworlf, 1957. More recent classifications however list the two as distinct genera and put Uraloceras in the Paragastrioceratinae and Pseudogastrioceras in the Pseudogastrioceratinae.

Paraceltitina is a suborder of early, primitive ceratitids from the middle and upper Permian; mostly equivalent to the Xenodiscaceae which it contains. Still used in some classifications but is otherwise disregarded.

Tornoceratatina is one of two suborders included in the Goniatitida, characterized by generally involute, subdiscoidal shells and by sutures in which the ventral ones are undivided.

Dimeroceratoidea, formerly Dimerocerataceae, is one of six superfamilies in the gonititid suborder Tornoceratina which lived During the Devonian. Five families are included, the Dimeroceratidae being the type family.

Prionoceratoidea is a superfamily in the goniatitid suborder, Tornoceratatina that was extant during the latter Paleozoic.

Pseudohaloritoidea, formerly Pseudohaloritaceae, is one of four superfamilies of the goniatitid suborderTornoceratatina. Although attributed the Ruzhencev, 1957 T.J Frest et al. included the Maximitidae and Pseudohaloritidae in the Cheilocerataceae in their May 1981 paper.

Falcitornoceratinae is one of three subfamilies of the Tornoceratidae family, a member of the Goniatitida order. Shells produced are extremely involute and have no umbilicus. Young and intermediate whorls have ventrolateral grooves. The adventitious lobe, which develops ontogenetically between the external, or ventral, and lateral lobes, is widely rounded. Tornoceratids in which the Falcitornoceratinae are included are involute, subdiscoidal, with sutures that form 6 to 10 lobes.

Neoicoceratoidea Superfamily of molluscs (fossil)

Neoicoceratoidea, formerly called Neoicocerataceae, is one of seventeen superfamilies of the Goniatitina suborder. Neoicoceratoidea comprises forms previously included in the Neoioceratidae and Metalegoceratidae, previously included in the Goniatitacae. These, along with new families defined for certain genera, including one from the Schistoceratidae, have been recombined as the Neoicocerataceae.

Thalassoceratoidea, formerly Thalassocerataceae, is a superfamily of Late Paleozoic ammonites characterized by their thick-discoidal to subglobular, involute shells with narrow or closed umbilici and biconvex growth striae with ventral sinuses. The ventral lobe of the suture, which straddles the outer rim, is wide, and bifid, with a tall median saddle.

Dimorphoceratidae is one of two families included in the Dimorphoceratoidea, a superfamily of ammonoid cephalopods belonging to the Goniatitida that lived during the Late Paleozoic. They are dimorphocerataceans in which the external lateral lobes and prongs of the ventral lobe are bifid. The shells are strongly involute, subdiscoidal to lenticular.

Karagandoceratoidea is an Early Carboniferous (Mississippian) superfamily within the ammonoid order, Goniatitida, said to contain the Karagandoceratidae and Prodromitidae.

<i>Paraceltites</i> genus of molluscs (fossil)

Paraceltites is a genus of ammonoid cephalopods in the ceratitid family Paraceltitidae, known from the Middle and Upper Permian of Sicily, the Alps, Crimea, Texas and Mexico. The shell of Paraceltities is evolute with whorls compressed, venter arched and smooth, sides bearing ribs that slant somewhat forward dorso-ventrally. The suture is simple and goniatitic.

<i>Kosmoclymenia</i> genus of molluscs (fossil)

Kosmoclymenia is a genus in the ammonoid order Clymeniida, in the family Kosmoclymeniidae.

<i>Goniatites crenistria</i> species of mollusc (fossil)

Goniatites crenistria is a species of extinct cephalopods belonging to the family Goniatitidae, included in the superfamily Goniatitaceae.

Elephantoceras is genus of a Middle Permian ammonite belonging to the goniatitid family Pseudohaloritidae. Fossils belonging to this genera were found in China.

Aulacaganides is monospecific genus of a Middle Permian ammonite belonging to the goniatitid family Pseudohaloritidae. Fossils belonging to this genera were found in Hunan province of China.
