Veneroidei

Bivalvia - Cardiida

Taxonomy
Veneroida was named by Gray (1854). It is extant.

It was considered an invalid subgroup of Heterodonta by Giribet and Wheeler (2002); it was corrected as Venerida by Bouchet et al. (2010); it was reranked as the unranked clade Veneroidei by Carter et al. (2011).

It was assigned to Bivalvia by Squires (1988), Squires (1999) and Sepkoski (2002); to Heteroconchia by Ward (1992) and Scholz et al. (2008); to Autobranchia by Nevesskaja (2009); to Heterodonta by Bouchet et al. (2010); to Cardiidina by Carter et al. (2011); and to Heterodonta by Newell (1965), Abbott (1974), Adegoke (1977), Vokes (1980), Gliozzi and Malatesta (1983), Squires (1984), Ward and Blackwelder (1987), Squires (1987), Shoshani et al. (1989), Wingard (1993), Squires (1999), Coan et al. (2000), Stilwell et al. (2004), Bieler and Mikkelsen (2006), Rosenberg et al. (2006) and Pérez et al. (2013).
