What is "kosmoceras"

Kosmoceras is a moderately evolute ammonite genus from the upper Callovian (Middle Jurassic) of Europe with a simple apterure and irregular ribbing interrupted by an irregular row of lateral tubercles. Strong ventral tubercles are separated by a smooth depression running along the rim.

Kosmocers belongs to the Sephanocerataceae and is the type genus for the Family Kosmoceratidae and for the subfamily Kosmoceratinae. Kosmoceras spinosum Waagen is the type species.
