On Taxonomy[edit]

I left Rioceras in the Baltoceratidae (see taxobox) as it was originally placed by Rousseau Flower when he established and defined the genus in 1964 and where it was retained by him and Richard Hook in 1977 even though Kröger,Beresi,Landing (2007) reassigned it to the Ellesmeroceratidae on what I consider very good reasoning. Any suggestions? If someone redoes the taxobox to put it in the Ellesmeroceratidae instead, it'll be fine with me, or it can be left as is with the alternative discussed in the text.
