Valid replacement name for illegitimate family name Sturiellaceae Nemejc (Palaeobotanika 3: 275-276. 1968), based on the illegitimate later homonym Sturiella R. Kräusel (in Senckenbergiana 29: 148. 15 Dec 1948) non Sturiella C. E. Weiss ex H. Potonié (Lehrb. Pflanzenpalaentol. 100. Feb 1897, fossil Marattiopsida).
