Taxonomic remark From Adrain et al., 2003: Lu and Qian (in Zhou et al. 1977) erected Triplacephalidae for Amzasskiella, Crucicephalus, and Triplacephalus (since placed in synonymy of Amzasskiella), but the broader affinity of this ‘family’ is uncertain. Peng (1990) placed it in synonymy of Nepeidae Whitehouse, 1939, a group with a rich history in the Middle and Upper Cambrian of Australia (e.g., Öpik, 1967, 1970), an opinion followed by Fortey & Hughes (1998). [details]
