Dactylioceras was a widespread genus of ammonites from the Lower Jurassic period, approximately 180 million years ago (mya).
Zugodactylites is an extinct genus of cephalopods belonging to the Ammonite subclass. It has lived during lower Jurassic, lower Toarcian, ammonite zone Fibulatum. Its fossils were found in Europe, Russia and Canada.
Harpoceras is an extinct genus of cephalopod belonging to the family Hildoceratidae. These cephalopods existed in the Jurassic period, during Toarcian age from Falciferum zone to Commune subzone of Bifrons zone. They were fast-moving nektonic carnivores.
Ovaticeras is an extinct genus of cephalopod belonging to the family Hildoceratidae. These cephalopods existed in the Jurassic period, during upper Pliensbachian and lower Toarcian. Its fossils were found in Europe, North Africa and possibly also in Canada and Vietnam. It might have evolved from Harpoceras falciferum and died out without leaving any descendants.
Cleviceras is an extinct genus of cephalopod belonging to the family Hildoceratidae. These cephalopods existed in the Jurassic period, during Toarcian and possibly even uppermost Pliensbachian age. Sometimes, it is considered to be a synonym of Eleganticeras.
Prodactylioceras is genus of ammonite that lived during the Pliensbachian stage of early Jurassic. It has evolved from Reynesocoeloceras, but maybe not directly, but through Bettoniceras. Its fossils were found in Europe, Asia and North America.
Cetonoceras is genus of ammonite that lived during the upper Pliensbachian stage of early Jurassic. Fossils of this genus were found in Italy, France, Spain, Portugal, Hungary and Austria.
Reynesocoeloceras is genus of ammonite that lived during the lower Pliensbachian stage of early Jurassic, ammonite zones Ibex—Davoei.
Porpoceras is genus of ammonite that lived during the early and middle Toarcian stage of early Jurassic. Members of this genus existed from uppermost part of Serpentinum Zone to Variabilis Subzone. Their fossils were found in Europe, Asia, North America and South America.
Reynesoceras is genus of ammonites that lived during the upper Pliensbachian stage of early Jurassic. It has evolved from Prodactylioceras, or Cetonoceras. Dactylioceras (Eodactylites) has probably evolved from this genus. Aveyroniceras is a name for macroconchs of this genus. Their fossils were found in Europe, northern Africa, Asia, North America and South America.
Collina is genus of ammonite that lived during lower to upper Toarcian stage of early Jurassic. Members of this genus existed from Braunianus Subzone to Variabilis Zone. Their fossils were found in Europe, Asia, North America and South America. It has evolved from Mesodactylites.
Catacoeloceras is genus of ammonite that lived during middle to late Toarcian stage of early Jurassic. Members of this genus existed from Crassum Subzone of Bifrons Zone to Variabilis Zone. Their fossils were found in Europe, northern Africa, Asia, North America and South America. It has evolved from Peronoceras, or Porpoceras.
Nodicoeloceras is genus of ammonite that lived during early to middle Toarcian stage of early Jurassic. Members of this genus existed from Exaratum Subzone of Falciferum Zone to Commune subzone of Bifrons Zone. Their fossils were found in Europe, northern Africa, Asia, North America and South America. It has probably evolved from Dactylioceras (Orthodactylites) or Kedonoceras and gave rise to Mesodactylites.
Mesodactylites, which is sometimes considered to be a synonym of Nodicoeloceras is genus of ammonite that lived during early to middle Toarcian stage of early Jurassic. Their fossils were found in southern and central Europe and northern Africa. It has evolved from Nodicoeloceras.
Transicoeloceras, which is sometimes considered to be a synonym of Catacoeloceras is genus of ammonite that lived during Toarcian stage of early Jurassic. Their fossils were found in Hungary, Italy, France, southern Spain and South America. It has evolved from Mesodactylites.
Telodactylites, which is sometimes considered to be a synonym of Porpoceras is genus of ammonite that lived during Toarcian stage of early Jurassic. Their fossils were found in Europe, northern Africa and South America. It has probably evolved from Mesodactylites.
The subfamily Dactylioceratinae comprises early Jurassic ammonite genera that lived during Upper Pliensbachian to Upper Toarcian stage. These dactylioceratids existed from Margaritatus ammonite Zone, when they have evolved from Reynesocoeloceratinae and died out in Variabilis Zone without leaving any descendants.
Mucrodactylites, which is sometimes considered to be a synonym of Collina, is genus of ammonite that lived during middle to late Toarcian stage of early Jurassic. Their fossils were found in Europe, northern Africa and South America. Species belonging to this genus were probably microconchs of Catacoeloceras. As macroconch of M. mucronatus is considered to be Catacoeloceras raquinianum.
Orthildaites is genus of ammonites that lived during the lower Toarcian stage of early Jurassic, during Falciferum subzone. Shell of these ammonites had quadrate whorl section with broad venter and strong keel in the center. Almost stright ribs were curving slightly forward at ventrolateral edge. Coiling has been evolute. Their fossils were found in Europe and north Africa. It has evolved form genus Hildaites and gave rise to Hildoceras. Validity of O. orthus is debated, as sometimes it is considered to be valid, while other authors consider it to be a synonym of O. douvillei.
