Family EOSTAFFELLIDAE Mamet in Mamet et al., 1970

Staffelloidea discoidal or lenticular. Pseudochomata relatively poorly developed. Rare axial filling. Wall simple, trilayered or with a faint luminotheca. Early Visean-late Moscovian.

Remark: Paramillerella Thompson, 1951 is morphologically similar to Eostaffella as indicated by numerous authors. Ikensieformis Orlova, 1997 , has only morphological differences with Eostaffella , which are pertinent at a specific level (i.e, Maslo & Vachard 1997). We support the synonymy between Eostaffella , Paramillerella and Ikensieformis .

Composition: Eostaffella Rauzer-Chernousova, 1948 ; Eostaffellina Reitlinger, 1963 ; Neomillerella Gaillot & Vachard, 2007 ; Plectostaffella Reitlinger, 1971 ; Varistaffella Kulagina & Sinitsyna, 2003 ; Varvariella Orlova, 1997 .
