Remarks
From Cleland (1907, p. 467): “Shell rather below a medium size, very moderately expanding from below upward to near the mibble of the outer chamber, as seen on the type specimen, about which it again decreases to the outer chamber, as seen on the type specimen, about which it again decreases to the aperture somewhat more abruptly than below.” Originally described as Gomphoceras fusiforme by Cleland in 1907.
