Kingdom Animalia Class Cephalopoda Order Orthocerida Rank Genus | Phylum Mollusca Subclass Nautiloidea Family Geisonoceratidae | |
Jaochimoceras is a genus of orthoceroid cephalopods from the Silurian of Central Europe (Bohemia) named by Baskov, 1960, and included in the Geisonoceratidae. As with the orthocerids, its shell is longiconic, siphuncle more or less central, and chambers somewhat long.
Note that Flower, 1976, regarded the Orthoceratidae and Geisonoceratidae as forming a continuous series, indivisible into separate families.
