The Barrandeoceratidae are derived from the tarphyceritid genus, Centrotarphyceras through Barrandeoceras (Flower 1984), and is the source for the Uranoceratidae and Nephriticeratidae. These three families form the barrandeoceratid group. Sometimes a fourth family, the Bickmoritidae, is added, based on the genus Bickmorites. Genera (Flower 1984) include Barrandeoceras, Centrocyrtoceras, Paquettoceras, Savageoceras, Gasconsoceras, Haydenoceras, and Paraplectoceras; and if included, Bickmorites. Avilionella and Laureloceras, included in the Barrandeocerida in the Treatise on Invertebrate Paleontology Part K (1964) have been removed to the Plectoceratidae. References
