Procymatoceras
Procymatoceras is a nautiloid cephalopod from the Middle Jurassic with a large, tightly involute, rapidly expanding shell. Early, inner, whorls are round in cross section. Later, outer, whorls, and mature living chamber are flattened on the sides and venter. Surface covered with sinuous ribs. Sutures have shallow ventral and dorsal lobes. Probably gave rise to "Cymatonautilus" and is the likely ancestor of "Cymatoceras" and "Paracymatoceras". "Procymatoceras" has its origin in the earliest Nautilidae, in "Cenoceras".
