Falcatidae is a family of Paleozoic holocephalians.[1] Members of this family include Falcatus, a small fish from the Bear Gulch Limestone of Montana.[2] The family first appeared around the start of the Carboniferous, and there is some evidence that they survived well into the early Cretaceous,[3] though its putative Cretaceous members were also argued to be more likely neoselachians.[4]
Genera
- Denaea [5]
- Falcatus[2]
- Ozarcus?[6]
- Stethacanthulus [5]
- Cretacladoides? – possible Early Cretaceous (Valanginian) member of the family[7]
