Phillipsiidae is a family of proetid trilobites, the various genera of which comprise some of the very last of the trilobites, with a range that extended from the Kinderhookian epoch of the Lower Mississippian, to the end of Changhsingian age at Permian-Triassic extinction event in the latest Permian period.[1]

Phillipsiidae is sometimes defined as a subfamily, "Phillipsiinae," and usually placed within the family Proetidae. Jell & Adrain (2003) went so far as to lump Phillipsiidae into the family Proetidae, however other workers since like Lerosey-Aubril and Feist (2005) have continued to recognize Phillipsiidae as a distinct and separate family within Proetida.

gollark: Can you though? Might a lot of Windows internals not expect CRLFs?
gollark: I just add random CRs to all my files!
gollark: I've definitely seen Windows installing weird useless stuff on update before.
gollark: 7 still has the resource wastage, maybe telemetry and forced updates, and also maybe other-OS-breaking.
gollark: But it does, nbecause that negatively thingies the user experience.
