context_page_description: This list of eurypterid genera is a comprehensive listing of all genera that have ever been included in the order Eurypterida, excluding purely vernacular terms. The list includes all commonly accepted genera, but also genera that are now considered invalid, doubtful, or were not formally published, as well as junior synonyms of more established names and genera that are no longer considered eurypterids. The list currently includes 114 names out of which 73 are considered valid eurypterid genera.
  There are approximately 250 species of eurypterids recognized as valid.
