Diagnosis
Superfamily of the suborder Liroceratina with a pachyconic and rarely discoidal or globular, subinvolute to involute conch. Whorl profile usually circular or depressed oval without distinct ventrolateral shoulder; in some species with a pronounced but rounded ventrolateral shoulder. Dorsal whorl zone usually small to moderately deep. Juvenile sculpture in the early species with spiral lines that may be restricted to the umbilical area; derived species are often smooth. Suture line very simple, almost straight across flanks and venter (from Korn 2025).
Included families
Liroceratidae Miller & Youngquist, 1949 (Carboniferous to Triassic); Coloceratidae Hyatt, 1893 [homonym, synonym of Liroceratidae Miller & Youngquist, 1949 ]; Paranautilidae Kummel in Flower & Kummel, 1950 (Triassic); Permonautilidae Barskov & Shilovsky, 2014 (Permian); Planetoceratidae Korn, 2025 (Carboniferous); Julfanautilidae Korn & Ghaderi, 2025 (Permian).
