Eucrassatella

Bivalvia - Carditida - Crassatellidae

Taxonomy

Eucrassatella was named by Iredale (1924) [Sepkoski's age data: T Eo-l R Sepkoski's reference number: 899]. It is extant. Its type is Crassatella kingicola.

It was reranked as Crassatellites (Eucrassatella) by Uozumi (1955); it was reranked as Crassatella (Eucrassatella) by Barrios (1960).

It was assigned to Crassatellites by Uozumi (1955); to Crassatella by Barrios (1960); to Veneroida by Sepkoski (2002); to Crassatellinae by Vokes (1980), Perrilliat (1992), Moore (2003); and to Crassatellidae by Mukerjee (1939), DuBar (1958), Cruz (1980), Woodring (1982), Gazdzicki and Pugaczewska (1984), Lamprell and Whitehead (1992), Collins et al. (2014).
