Cycloceras

Cycloceras was named by McCoy (1844 and assigned to the Michelinoceratida by Flower (1962)and to the Orthocerida by Sweet in Teichert et al. (1964);^[2] Cycloceras is possibly a member of the Cycloceratidae and may be synonymous with Perigrammoceras.^{[citation needed]}

The type species of Cycloceras, C. annularis, is based in an internal mold of a body chamber on which the position of the siphuncle is indiscernible (Sweet 1964,) Species referred to Cycloceras are annulated, subcylindrical orthocones with no longitudinal ornamentation . Fig 186, p K258 Teichert et al. (1964) shows Cycloceras as narrow, gently expanding, annulated orthocone with a narrow subcentral siphuncle. Annuli (circular transverse bands or costae) are thick and close spaced, giving a corrugated appearance.
