Taxonomic remark Includes Staurorhabdus Noel, 1973; Vekshinella Loeblich & Tappan, 1963; Vagalapilla Bukry, 1969; Haslingfieldia Black, 1973; ?Pontilithus Gartner, 1968 (see Young & Bown, 1997). From Nannotax3: Most authors have followed Perch-Nielsen (1985, p.351) in using Staurolithites since it has priority over Vekshinella and Vagalapilla, whislt Ephippium is invalid. However de Kaenel & Bergen (1996) and more recently de Kaenel et al. (2020) have argued that because thetype species of Staurolithites, S. laffittei, is poorly described the genus should be ignored. However, the species is now in fairly common use, following the usage of Burnett (1998). Given this S. laffittei cannot be ignored and needs to be included in the generic concept, hence the correct name is Staurolithites. [details]
