Viséan
The Visean, Viséan or Visian is an age in the ICS geologic timescale or a stage in the stratigraphic column.
Xenacanthida
Xenacanthida (or Xenacanthiformes) is an order or superorder of extinct shark-like chondrichthyans (cartilaginous fish) known from the Carboniferous to Triassic. Reginaselache and Xenacanthida are Carboniferous cartilaginous fish and Xenacanths.
