Monograptidae is an extinct family of graptolites of the order Graptoloidea.[1] Monograptids have only one row of thecae per stipe (stem, branch), unlike the biserial graptolites which have two opposing rows of thecae per stipe.[2]
Fossil record
Fossils of Monograptidae are found from the Ordovician to the Devonian (age range: from 460.9 to 402.5 million years ago). They are especially important during the early Silurian.[2] They are known from various localities in Europe, North America, Argentina , China , Central Asia, Southeast Asia, Australia , Algeria and Morocco.[1]
Genera
Maletz (2014) identifies 98 genera of Monograptidae. The family can possibly be divided into several subfamilies.[3]
