It has a very high coiling rate (WER = 2.59). The specimen shows a morphological change in the shape of the umbilicus. During the last volution of the phragmocone, the umbilical margin changes from subangular to rounded. At the same time, the umbilical wall changes from flattened to rounded.

(ww/dm <i>~</i> 0.76 at 67 mm dm). <i>Planetoceras transforme</i> sp. nov. (described below) has a much stouter conch (ww/dm ~ 0.85).</p> |
