Proetidae

In this article, we will explore Proetidae from different perspectives to understand its impact on society. From its birth to the present, Proetidae has played a fundamental role in various aspects of daily life. We will analyze its evolution over time, highlighting its achievements and challenges. Additionally, we will examine how Proetidae has influenced and shaped our personal and collective experiences. Through this journey, we seek to provide a comprehensive view of Proetidae and its relevance in today's world.

Proetidae is a family of proetid trilobites. The first species appeared in the Upper Ordovician,[1] and the last genera survived until the Middle Permian. However, if the closely related family Phillipsiidae is actually a subfamily of Proetidae, then the proetids of Proetidae survive until the end of the Permian, where the last perish during the Permian–Triassic extinction event.[2]

Genera

Proetidae ostensibly contains these following genera, though many may be placed in Phillipsiidae if the latter is, indeed, a distinct family.[3]
