Diagnosis
ReferenceDiagnosis
C. W. Wright et al. 1996Very evolute; whorl section circular to subquadrate, becoming higher with age; ribs single, straight to sinuous, irregular, and very distant until body chamber where there may be strengthening intercalatories. Early whorls with weak umbilical bullae, with or without weak lateral tubercles, and with inner and stronger outer ventrolateral and irregular, weak to strong, clavate siphonal tubercles. Tubercles persisting or weakening, with ribs becoming dominant. Probably derived from Euomphaloceras by increase in whorl height, flattening of sides, and reduction of secondary ribs with their tubercles.
