Berriasellidae
Berriasellinae is a subfamily of very late Jurassic and very early Cretaceous perisphinctoid ammonites in the family Neocomitidae. Berriasellinae comprises generally compressed, evolute genera, typically with furcated ribbing, and in some a smooth ventral band or groove. Berriasellinae are derived from the Ataxioceratidae and gave rise to the other Neocomitidae. The short lived Himalayitidae from the uppermost Jurassic have a similar appearance but differ in being generally broader and having sharper ribbing. In current classifications (e.g. Donovan ''et al.'' 1981) berriasellid perisphinctaceans are included in the Neocomitidae as a subfamily, the Berriasellinae. In older classification such as the Treatise on Invertebrate Paleontology, part L (1957), neocomitid genera are included in the Berriasellidae, '' sensu lato'', as the Neocomitinae. Berriasellinae includes the genera ''Andiceras'', ''Berriasella'', ''Blanfordiceras'', ''Delphinella'', '' Elenaella'', '' Jabronel ...

Perisphinctoidea
Perisphinctoidea, formerly Perisphinctaceae, is a superfamily of Middle Jurassic (Bajocian) to Lower Cretaceous (Barremian) ammonites, commonly with evolute shells with strong ribbing that typically divides about mid flank before crossing the venter.

Tirnovella
''Tirnovella'' is an extinct subgenus of ammonoid cephalopod, from the early Cretaceous. Use in Stratigraphy The group is often used as an index fossil, with ''Tirnovella alpillensis'' being used to define border between the Berriasian and the Valanginian stages of the Cretaceous, and ''Tirnovella subalpina'' defining the border between the Middle and Lower substages of the Berriasian. The Middle Berriasian is the defined as the ''Tirnovella occitanica'' zone.

Neocomitidae
Neocomitidae is a family of Lower Cretaceous ammonitids comprising genera with strongly ribbed evolute (all whorls exposed) to smooth, fairly involute (inner whorls mostly hidden) shells. In the 1957 description of the family Neocomitidae was regarded as the subfamily Neocomitinae within the Berriasellidae, a family within the Perisphinctoidea that ranged from the Late Jurassic into the Early Cretaceous. In a more recent treatment berriaselids are regarded as a subfamily within the Neocomitidae. Current opinion differers from the 1967 placement of Neocomitidae in the Perisphinctoidea but rather includes it in the superfamily Endemoceratoidea.

Blanfordiceras
''Blanfordiceras'' is a strongly ribbed, evolute ammonite included in the perisphinctacean family, Neocomitidae Neocomitidae is a family of Lower Cretaceous ammonitids comprising genera with strongly ribbed evolute (all whorls exposed) to smooth, fairly involute (inner whorls mostly hidden) shells. In the 1957 description of the family Neocomitidae was r ... that lived during the latest Jurassic. The shell of ''Blanfordiceras'' is discoidal, with evolute coiling and all whorls visible so as to have a broad umbilicus. Exposed whorls are ornamented with strong ribbing that arises from the umbilicus, bifurcating on the outer flanks and extending onto the venter. In general form ''Blanfordiceras'' is similar to '' Berriasella'', although with a more rounded whorl section.
