Cornuodus Fåhraeus, 1966

Type species. Cornuodus erectus Fåhraeus, 1966 (= Drepanodus longibasis Lindström, 1955 ).

Remarks. Cornuodus was comprehensively revised recently ( Löfgren, 1999), with the only known species C. longibasis ( Lindström, 1955) shown to range from the late Tremadocian to Ashgill. This species had a widespread biogeographic distribution within various biofacies as a minor component of faunas, but is apparently absent from typical North American Midcontinent faunas. Löfgren (1999) suggested that Cornuodus was most closely related to Protopanderodus and Drepanodus , assigning it to the Family Protopanderodontidae, Lindström, 1970 .
