Genus Physodoceras Hyatt, 1900 TYPE SPECIES. — Ammonites circumspinosus Quenstedt, 1849., Published as part of Cecca, Fabrizio & Savary, Bérengère, 2007, Palaeontological study of Middle Oxfordian- Early Kimmeridgian (Late Jurassic) ammonites from the Rosso Ammonitico of Monte Inici (north-western Sicily, Italy), pp. 507-548 in Geodiversitas 29 (4) on page 537, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.4651042

Physodoceras cf. wolfi (Neumayr, 1873) (Fig. 12A) MATERIAL EXAMINED. — MI4N 8c/3. STRATIGRAPHIC DISTRIBUTION. — The specimen has been collected in bed 8c of section Monte Inici East, assigned with doubt to the Hauffianum Subzone of the Late Oxfordian Bimammatum Zone. DESCRIPTION Moderately evolute shell, with a deep umbilicus and a large whorl section. Whorl flanks are almost flat and converge towards a rounded, large venter. The umbilical wall is steep and the umbilical margin is rounded. Due to crushing, the whorl section is not correctly observable in the body chamber. The ornamentation is made of small, rounded, periumbilical tubercles. The suture line is characterized by L as deep as E and S 1 slightly higher than S 2. Measurements: see Table 21. DISCUSSION The preservation does not allow a firm identification of this specimen. A similar species is P. insulanum (Gemmellaro, 1874), which has been considered synonym of P. wolfi by Checa (1985). In the recent revision of the Gemmellaro species, D’Arpa & Meléndez (2002) keep the latter distinct from P. wolfi because of the wider whorl-breadth and the stronger tubercles. The characters visible in the phragmocone of our specimen suggest the comparison with P. wolfi., Published as part of Cecca, Fabrizio & Savary, Bérengère, 2007, Palaeontological study of Middle Oxfordian- Early Kimmeridgian (Late Jurassic) ammonites from the Rosso Ammonitico of Monte Inici (north-western Sicily, Italy), pp. 507-548 in Geodiversitas 29 (4) on page 537, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.4651042, {"references":["CHECA A. 1985. - Los Aspidoceratiformes en Europa (Ammonitina, Fam.

Taramelliceras cf. hauffianum ? (Oppel, 1863) (Fig. 5A, B) MATERIAL EXAMINED. — MI4W 8b/c/3. STRATIGRAPHIC DISTRIBUTION. — The specimen has been collected in bed 8c of section Monte Inici West. It must be stressed that the tentative identification of this specimen also makes tentative the assignment of this bed to the Hauffianum Subzone. DESCRIPTION The specimen is a fragment of an inner mold. It shows the venter and the upper third of the flank of a portion of the shell that corresponds to the last part of the phragmocone and the beginning of the body chamber.The venter is large and rounded; it gradually passes to the flanks due to the lack of clear ventrolateral shoulders. Rounded tubercles are visible at the transition between the venter and the flanks. One or two ribs spring from the tubercles; three to four simple ribs are intercalated between two tubercles., Published as part of Cecca, Fabrizio & Savary, Bérengère, 2007, Palaeontological study of Middle Oxfordian- Early Kimmeridgian (Late Jurassic) ammonites from the Rosso Ammonitico of Monte Inici (north-western Sicily, Italy), pp. 507-548 in Geodiversitas 29 (4) on page 517, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.4651042

Euaspidoceras cf. lytoceroide ? (Gemmellaro, 1876) (Fig. 7D) MATERIAL EXAMINED. — MI3 9/9. STRATIGRAPHIC DISTRIBUTION. — Bed 9 of section Castello Inici, which has been assigned to the Middle Oxfordian Plicatilis Zone. DESCRIPTION The specimen is an eroded internal mold of an aspidoceratid whose size is approximately 85 mm. The inner whorls are dissolved but traces of ventrolateral tubercles are visible from a diameter of 7 mm. Eight tubercles per whorl exist at a diameter of approximately 21 mm. No traces of umbilical tubercles and ribs are visible. The preserved portion of the last whorl shows traces of ventrolateral tubercles and corroded folds that likely are rib remains. Because any traces of suture lines are visible it is impossible to state whether this specimen bears the body chamber or not. Due to the incomplete preservation, measurements cannot be taken. DISCUSSION The preservation of the specimen is extremely poor but the tubercles of the inner whorls and the coiling aspect suggest a tentative comparison with E. lytoceroide., Published as part of Cecca, Fabrizio & Savary, Bérengère, 2007, Palaeontological study of Middle Oxfordian- Early Kimmeridgian (Late Jurassic) ammonites from the Rosso Ammonitico of Monte Inici (north-western Sicily, Italy), pp. 507-548 in Geodiversitas 29 (4) on page 534, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.4651042

Tornquistes (Tornquistes) cf. romani (Douvillé, 1912) (Fig. 4D) MATERIAL EXAMINED. — MI3 9/7. STRATIGRAPHIC DISTRIBUTION. — Bed 9 of section Castello Inici, which has been assigned to the Middle Oxfordian Plicatilis Zone. DESCRIPTION Incomplete specimen corresponding to the body chamber of an individual that reached a diameter of about 60 mm. The shell is globular and rather involute. The whorl section is ovate, with convex flanks converging towards the narrow venter. The umbilical edge is rounded and no umbilical wall is visible. Bundles of two strong, radiate ribs spring from radial umbilical bullae. Single ribs are intercalated between the bundles. DISCUSSION The poor preservation of our specimen prevents its precise identification. The morphologically closer species is Tornquistes (T.) romani. It is impossible to state if the specimen studied corresponds to an adult or to an immature individual but its rib density and, apparently, its umbilical width can be compared to immature specimens of similar diameter described by Thierry & Charpy (1982). The preservation does not allow observing whether the umbilical wall is really not developed or if it is simply not observable. Tornquistes (T.) multicostatum Thierry & Charpy, 1982 and T. (T.) helvetiae (Tornquist, 1896) have more evolute shells., Published as part of Cecca, Fabrizio & Savary, Bérengère, 2007, Palaeontological study of Middle Oxfordian- Early Kimmeridgian (Late Jurassic) ammonites from the Rosso Ammonitico of Monte Inici (north-western Sicily, Italy), pp. 507-548 in Geodiversitas 29 (4) on pages 516-517, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.4651042, {"references":["THIERRY J. & CHARPY N. 1982. - Le genre Tornquistes (Ammonitina, Pachyceratidae) a l'Oxfordien inferieur et moyen en Europe occidentale.
