†FAMILY NEOLEPADIDAE YAMAGUCHI, NEWMAN & HASHIMOTO, 2004 (AMENDED) Diagnosis: Eight-plated capitulum comprising two scuta, two terga, two upper latera, a carina and a rostrum. The large rostrum articulates with the rostral margin of the scutum, and the carina with the lower carinal margin of the tergum. Comment: The number of shell plates has evolved secondarily from forms with additional lateral plates. In the amended diagnosis, the family does not include Neoverruca and Imbricaverruca. Note that we do not here consider †† Litholepas klausreschi Nagler, Haug, Glenner & Buckeridge, 2017 as a member of this family. † Ashinkailepas Yamaguchi, Newman & Hashimoto, 2004 (Pleistocene–Recent) (three species) Leucolepas Southward & Jones, 2003 (one species) Neolepas Newman, 1979 (three species) †† Stipilepas Carriol, 2016 (Eocene) (one species) Vulcanolepas Southward & Jones, 2003 (five species)
