A nomenclator of the Palaeozoic taxa of the family Parallelodontidae (Bivalvia, Arcida)

This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Friedel, Julia C., Neubauer, Thomas A., Amler, Michael R. W. (2026): A nomenclator of the Palaeozoic taxa of the family Parallelodontidae (Bivalvia, Arcida). European Journal of Taxonomy 1065: 1-136, DOI: 10.5852/ejt.2026.1065.3289, URL: europeanjournaloftaxonomy.eu/index.php/ejt/article/download/3289/14501 Abstract. The Parallelodontidae are a long-living family in the bivalve superfamily Arcoidea, ranging from the Devonian to the Recent.

Their fossil taxonomic diversity, however, is poorly known – especially so for the Palaeozoic. Here, we intend to fill this gap and provide a list of all Palaeozoic genus- and species-group names of the family published in the literature. This nomenclator compiles details on type species (genus-group names), type locality, type horizon and type material (species-group names), along with information on the original source, as well as remarks on taxonomic status, nomenclature and systematic placement.
