Pseudoaspidoceras is an extinct genus of ammonites in the family Acanthoceratidae.
These cephalopods lived during the Turonian stage of the Upper Cretaceous, between 93.5 ± 0.8 Ma and 89.3 ± 1 Ma (million years ago). Their shells reached a diameter of 90–120 mm and had ornate ribs.
Fossils of Pseudoaspidoceras have been found in Brazil, Nigeria and Peru. [1]
Hyperlioceras is an extinct genus of cephalopod included in the ammonitid family Graphoceratidae that lived during the Bajocian stage of the Middle Jurassic. The type species is Hyperlioceras discites
Eugnathides is an extinct genus of prehistoric bony fish that lived from the Oxfordian to the early Tithonian stage of the Late Jurassic epoch. Eugnathides may have been similar to Sphaerodontes.
Cenoceras is an extinct genus within the cephalopod mollusc family Nautilidae, which in turn makes up part of the superfamily Nautilaceae. This genus has been described by Hyatt in 1884. The type species is Cenoceras intermedium, which was originally described by Sowerby 1816 as Nautilus intermedius.
Phylloceras is an extinct genus of ammonoid cephalopods belonging to the family Phylloceratidae. These nektonic carnivores lived from Early Jurassic to Late Cretaceous.
Tarasiiformes is an extinct order of prehistoric ray-finned fish.
Belemnites is a genus of an extinct group of cephalopods belonging to the order Belemnitida. These cephalopods existed in the Early Jurassic period from the Hettangian age to the Toarcian age (175.6–183.0). They were fast-moving nektonic carnivores.
Spirifer is a genus of marine brachiopods belonging to the order Spiriferida and family Spiriferidae. Species belonging to the genus lived from the Middle Ordovician (Sandbian) through to the Late Triassic (Carnian) with a global distribution. They were stationary epifaunal suspension feeders.

Virgatosphinctes is an extinct genus of ammonites, which lived in the Tithonian stage of the Jurassic period, from 150.8 to 140.2 Ma. Its fossils have been found in Antarctica, China, Cuba, India, Nepal, Russia and Yemen.
Puzosia is a genus of desmoceratid ammonites, and the type genus for the Puzosiinae, which lived during the middle part of the Cretaceous, from early Aptian to Maastrichtian. Sepkoski defines the range from Albian to Santonian. The generic name comes from the Serbian words "Puž" (snail) and "oce/ose" (axis), gaining its name from the shell's snail-like appearance.
