Occurrence.—The species is widely distributed in both southern and northwestern Europe where it rang- es in age from the Obtusum to the Margaritatus Zone with its acme in the Margaritatus Zone. Outside Eu- rope, the species has only been reported from the Late Pliensbachian Nicely Formation in east-central Ore- gon (Imlay, 1968). Localities. — ET4, 114.

Description.—Sma.\\ forms with equant to slightly depressed whorls that become compressed as the last whorl egresses. The body chamber is probably a little over half a whorl although last sutures are not clearly preserved. The mature body chamber terminates in a narrow, fairly deep constriction followed by a rostrum. Type material. -Holotype: Ammonites laevigatus J. de C. Sowerby, 1827, p. 135, pi. 570, fig. 3. Material.—Three internal molds with some shell material, preserved in calcareous sand
