Tucetona
Taxonomy
Tucetona was named by Iredale (1939) [Sepkoski's age data: T Than R Sepkoski's reference number: 816]. It is extant.
It was reranked as Glycymeris (Tucetona) by Keen (1971) and Moore (1983).
It was assigned to Glycymeridinae by Vokes (1980); to Glycymeris by Keen (1971) and Moore (1983); to Arcoida by Sepkoski (2002); to Melaxinaeinae by Spencer et al. (2004); and to Glycymerididae by Lamprell and Whitehead (1992), Tschudin (2001), Todd (2001) and Mikkelsen (2006).
