Scale bars for size. alone cannot account for this phylogenetically sudden increase in sutural complexity—specimens of B. capensis of similar size do show a progressive increase in overall denticulation of the suture line (Fig. 22), but the elements remain more or less quadrate and unconstricted and quite simple when compared to that of Pseudobaculites. Sutural complexity similar to that of Coniacian Pseudobaculites only occurs in much younger Baculites and Pseudobaculites natosini in the Campanian and Maastrichtian. The relatively simple Baculites suture is retained by the majority of baculitids in the Santonian (Fig. 28A-D), including the criocone curved genus Boehmoceras (Fig. 27). Baculites pseudobaculus (Fig. 28D), a rather poorly.
