Transicoeloceras, which is sometimes considered to be a synonym of Catacoeloceras[2] is genus of ammonite that lived during Toarcian stage (Bifrons to lower Gradatus ammonite Zones) of early Jurassic. Their fossils were found in Hungary, Italy, France, southern Spain and South America. It has evolved from Mesodactylites.[1]
