Use in stratigraphy[edit]

The Visean, the second age of the Mississippian, contains four conodont biozones, two of which are named after Lochriea species:

The Serpukhovian, the third or youngest age of the Mississippian, includes three conodont biozones, one of which is named after Lochriea species:
