Terropterus
Mixopterid characterized by retaining two spines on the fourth podomere of prosomal appendage III, longest spines (normally three in number) on each of the following podomeres: III-5, III-6 evenly arranged, nearly the same length, interlaced by other moderately long and short spines; appendage II short, with several pairs of spines at the distal end; appendages IV and V bearing slim and long spines at the end of each podomere, almost parallel to the direction in which the end of the limb is pointing.
It was assigned to Mixopteridae by Wang et al. (2021); and to Lanarkopteridae by Lamsdell (2025).
