On the systematics and phylogeny of the Triassic Pterinopectinidae (Bivalvia)

V.A. Gavrilova

Abstract. A new classificaton of the Pterinopectinidae Newell, 1938 is proposed. It is based mainly on the structure of the ligament area. The family includes 3 subfamilies, 12 genera and 2 subgenera, among them subfamilies Pseudoclaraiinae and Claraiinae, and subgenus Claraia (Bittnericlaraia) are new. The diagnoses and composition of all suprageneric taxa and the new subgenus are given.
