Superfamily Goniolobocerataceae SPATH, 1934:

A:   Conch form discoidal to globular, in general involute; umbilicus narrow.
G:   Ventral lobe wide, with diverging sides; sides straight or slightly curved. Median saddle usually exceeding half
       the height of ventral lobe.
       Sutural formula: [Germ.] (E1EmE1)AL:UI, [Russ.] (V1V1)LU:ID].

Family Gonioloboceratidae SPATH, 1934:

A-E: Conch form in general discoidal, involute, with narrowly rounded or oxyconic ventral side, sometimes with external
        or ventrolateral grooves.
G:   Ventral lobe extremely wide, with strongly diverging sides; median saddle broad, with diverging sides, higher than
       half the height of entire ventral lobe. First lateral saddle narrowly rounded, subacute or acute. Adventitious lobe
