The genus Trigoides is known from fossils from the Chengjiang Lagerstätte.[1] It is proposed to be a type of ctenophore.[2][3] A phylogenetic study of Cambrian stem-group ctenophores recovered Trigoides in Scleroctenophora, along with Galeactena, Maotianoascus, Thaumactena, Batofasciculus and Gemmactena.[4]
