'''Proetidae''' is a [family](/source/Family_(taxonomy)) of [proetid](/source/Proetida) [trilobite](/source/trilobite)s. The first species appeared in the [Upper Ordovician](/source/Upper_Ordovician),<ref>{{cite journal |author1=Helje Pärnaste |author2=Adrian Popp |author3=Robert M.

However, if the closely related family [Phillipsiidae](/source/Phillipsiidae) is actually a subfamily of Proetidae, then the proetids of Proetidae survive until the end of the Permian, where the last perish during the [Permian–Triassic extinction event](/source/Permian%E2%80%93Triassic_extinction_event).<ref>{{cite book |editor1=Philip D.

==Genera==
Proetidae ostensibly contains these following genera, though many may be placed in Phillipsiidae if the latter is, indeed, a distinct family.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.trilobites.info/ordproetida.htm |title=Order Proetida |author=Sam Gon III |accessdate=November 9, 2010 |work=A Guide to the Orders of Trilobites |date=April 21, 2008}}</ref>
