Strophomena (Strophodonta)

Strophomenata - Strophomenida - Strophodontidae

Taxonomy
Stropheodonta was named by Hall (1852). It is the type genus of Strophodontidae.

It was reranked as Strophomena (Strophodonta) by Hall (1857); it was corrected as Strophodonta by Rong and Cocks (1994), Williams et al. (2000), Hoel (2011), Congreve et al. (2015).

It was assigned to Articulata by Hall (1852); to Strophomena by Hall (1857); to Stropheodontidae by Boucot (1960); to Strophomenida by Sepkoski (2002); and to Strophodontidae by Rong and Cocks (1994), Williams et al. (2000), Hoel (2011), Congreve et al. (2015).
