'''''Callavia''''' is an [extinct](/source/extinct) [genus](/source/genus) of [trilobite](/source/Trilobita) [arthropod](/source/arthropod)s. '''''Callavia''''' lived during the late [Atdabanian](/source/Atdabanian) stage, which lasted from 530 to 524 million years ago during the early part of the [Cambrian Period](/source/Cambrian_Period)<ref name="Sepkoski">{{cite journal|last=Sepkoski |first=Jack |author-link=Jack Sepkoski |title=A compendium of fossil marine animal genera (Trilobita entry) |journal=Bulletins of American Paleontology |volume=363 |pages=1–560 |year=2002 |url=http://strata.ummp.lsa.umich.edu/jack/showgenera.php?taxon=307&rank=class |access-date=2008-01-12 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060905162524/http://strata.ummp.lsa.umich.edu/jack/showgenera.php?taxon=307&rank=class |archive-date=2006-09-05 }}</ref> in what are today Canada and the United States.

== Taxonomy ==
The position of ''Callavia'' in relation to other Olenellina has shifted repeatedly over time. Initially it was assigned to the Holmiinae by [Pierre Hupé](/source/Pierre_Hup%C3%A9), and was later moved back and forth to the Callaviinae.<ref name= 'Palmer&Repina'>{{citation|last1=Palmer|first1=A.R.|last2=Repina|first2=L.N.|year=1993|title=Through a Glass Darkly: Taxonomy, Phylogeny and Biostratigraphy of the Olenellina|journal=The University of Kansas Paleontological Contributions|volume=3|pages=1–35|url=http://kuscholarworks.ku.edu/dspace/handle/1808/3760}}</ref> Lieberman, however, argues ''Callavia'' is a basal member of the Judomioidea.<ref name=Lieberman2001/>

== Distribution ==
''C. broeggeri'' is known from the Lower Cambrian of Newfoundland (Brigus Formation, Branchian Series, Conception Bay), Nova Scotia (between Docters Brook and Malignant Brook, northernmost [Antigonish Highlands](/source/Cobequid_Mountains)), Canada, and Massachusetts, USA ([Weymouth Formation](/source/Weymouth_Formation), Pearl street, North Weymouth, and probably Hoppin Hill Reservoir, North Attleboro).
''C. choffati'' is known from the [Iberian Peninsula](/source/Iberian_Peninsula) in the Elvas Municipality in Portugal and in several localities in the Huelva Province, Spain.<ref name='Collantes et. al.'/> ''C. callavei'' is found in the [Comley Limestone](/source/Comley_Limestone) in Shropshire, England.

== Ecology ==
''C. broeggeri'' occurs together with the [bracihiopods](/source/Brachiopoda) ''Sunnaginia imbricata'' and ''Eccentrotheca kanesia'', and 
the [agnostid](/source/Agnostida) ''Serrodiscus bellimarginatus''.<ref>{{Cite journal|last= Landing|first= E.|year= 1995|title= Upper Placentian-Branchian series of mainland Nova Scotia (middle-upper Lower Cambrian) faunas, paleoenvironments, and stratigraphic revision|journal= Journal of Paleontology|volume= 69|number= 3|pages= 475–495|jstor= 1306322|doi= 10.1017/S0022336000034879|bibcode= 1995JPal...69..475L|s2cid= 133094242}}</ref><ref>[https://paleobiodb.org/classic/displayCollResults?collection_no=9350 Paleobiology Database]</ref>
