Taxonomy
The content of Barentsiidae (sometimes without the genus Urnatella2) is sometimes classified as part of the family Pedicellinidae.34
The genus Urnatella (here classified in Barentsiidae) has been classified by some authors as the only genus of a separate family called Urnatellidae since the mid-19th century. Since 1915, the genus Loxosomatoides (today usually classified in Pedicellinidae sensu stricto) has been added to the family Urnatellidae by some authors.516
