Styginidae
Styginidae is a family of trilobite in the order Corynexochida. Fossils of the various genera are found in marine strata throughout the world, aged from Ordovician up until the family's extinction during the Silurian. Genera Styginidae contains the following genera. * ''Alceste (trilobite), Alceste'' * ''Ancyropyge'' Clark 1891 * ''Arctipeltis'' Maksimova 1986 * ''Australoscutellum'' Chatterton and Campbell 1980 * ''Bojoscutellum'' Snajdr 1958 * ''Breviscutellum'' Snajdr 1960 * ''Bronteopsis'' Nicholson and Etheridge 1879 * ''Bumastus'' Murchison 1839 * ''Cekovia'' Snajdr 1956 * ''Cornuscutellum'' Snajdr 1960 * ''Cybantyx'' Lane and Thomas 1978 * ''Decoroscutellum'' Snajdr 1958 * ''Delgadoa'' Thadeau 1947 * ''Dentaloscutellum'' Chatterton 1971 * ''Ekwanoscutellum'' Pribyl and Vanek 1972 * ''Eobronteus'' Reed 1928 * ''Eokosovopeltis'' Pribyl and Vanek 1972 * ''Failleana'' Chatterton and Ludvigson 1976 * ''Goldillaenoides'' Balashova 1959 * ''Goldillaenus'' Schindewolf 1924 * ...

Trilobite
Trilobites (; meaning "three-lobed entities") are extinction, extinct marine arthropods that form the class (biology), class Trilobita. One of the earliest groups of arthropods to appear in the fossil record, trilobites were among the most successful of all early animals, existing in oceans for almost 270million years, with over 22,000 species having been described. Because trilobites had wide diversity and an easily fossilized mineralised exoskeleton made of calcite, they left an extensive fossil record. The study of their fossils has facilitated important contributions to biostratigraphy, paleontology, evolution, evolutionary biology, and plate tectonics. Trilobites are placed within the clade Artiopoda, which includes many organisms that are morphologically similar to trilobites, but are largely unmineralised. The relationship of Artiopoda to other arthropods is uncertain. Trilobites evolved into many ecological niches; some moved over the seabed as predators, scavengers, or ...

Corynexochida Genera
Corynexochida is an order of trilobite that lived from the Lower Cambrian to the Late Devonian. Like many of the other trilobite orders, Corynexochida contains many species with widespread characteristics. Description The middle region of the cephalon (the glabella) is typically elongate, with the sides often spreading forward (pestle-shaped). Some species have glabellae that are ''effaced'', meaning they are smooth and show little detail. The glabellar furrows (when not effaced) typically have a splayed arrangement. In most species, the hind pair on either side of the cephalon become spines that point sharply backwards, and the spinose tips of the anterior pairs of thoracic segments tend to become more and more forward directed toward the pygidium. The eyes are typically large. Pygidia are typically large, competing in size with the cephalon in some species. The tips of the thoracic segments of many Corynexochida species are spine-like (though in some species they are flush wi ...
