Agnostida

Agnostida are an order of extinct arthropods which have classically been seen as a group of highly modified trilobites, though some recent research has doubted this placement.

Agnostotes

Agnostotes is a genus of artiopodan arthropod in the family Diplagnostidae of the order Agnostida. It was a widely distributed genus. Agnostotes orientalis and Agnostotes are Diplagnostidae.
