Taxonomic remark Family not recognised in WoRMS/World Porifera Database, October 2023; added from West et al., 2013, who state: Family Vaceletiidae was first recognized, based both in living and fossil forms as type genus Vaceletia Pickett, 1982, and fossil (Eocene) genus, Marinduqueia Yabe & Sugiyama, 1939, in the original conception of Reitner and Engeser (1985, p. 163), as a member of the order Verticillitida Termier & Termier in Termier, Termier, & Vachard, 1977 (only included in part in the family Verticillitidae Steinmann, 1882). However, other authors have treated the family Vaceletiidae as a junior synonym of family Verticillitidae Steinmann, 1882, within the order Verticillitida Termier & Termier in Termier, Termier, & Vachard, 1977 (see Senowbari-Daryan, 1990, p. 48; and Senowbari-Daryan & Garcia-Bellido, 2002, p. 1521), and subfamily Verticillitinae Steinmann, 1882, of family Verticillitidae (see Finks & Rigby, 2004, p. 712, and Senowbari-Daryan & Rigby, 2011, p. 70). ... The status of Vaceletiidae (following Reitner & Engeser, 1985, p. 163) remains uncertain: whether it should be reinstated as an independent family and be transferred only with type genus Vaceletia and possibly Marinduqueia to the order Dictyoceratida; or whether the morphologically closely related genera (Vaceletia plus eight fossil genera) belonging to the subfamily Verticillitinae should all be transferred to the Dictyoceratida (see compilation of Finks & Rigby, 2004, p. 712–719, and list in Senowbari-Daryan & Rigby, 2011, p. 70). ... However, for the present, it seems best to transfer only the type genus Vaceletia (and possibly Marinduqueia) of the family Vaceletiidae to the order Dictyoceratida, and leave all the other genera still considered to be fossil sphinctozoans as verticillitinid and verticillitid members of the order Verticillitida Termier & Termier in Termier, Termier, & Vachard, 1977, as followed by Finks and Rigby (2004) and Senowbari-Daryan and Rigby (2011). [details]
