Description
The winding cross-section is highly oval, the body involute and the flanks slightly convex. The umbilical edge and the umbilical drop are tightly rounded. The inner coils are smooth, from about 35mm diameter undulations and ribs appear on the venter. These become longer with increasing diameter and soon cover the whole flank. The ribs run proradially and are slightly curved.
Very similar, especially in terms of ribbing, is Partschiceras bernardii, but this species has a much narrower umbilicus and strongly flattened flanks with very little wb.
Age: atanatense and subsalinarius horizon
