  1. This heteromorphic species is characterized by an open plain spiral shape with slightly rursiradiate ribs and 3 sets of tubercles; 2 sets of ventrolateral tubercles, and 1 set of ventral tubercles. The whorl section is compressed and does not have constrictions in United States specimens but does have constrictions in many European specimens. The distance between ribs is roughly the same as the width of a rib. As far as I know, there are only two species reported for this genus, with the other being Phlycticrioceras rude from the late Santonian of France (Kennedy 1995). P. trinodosum is the only species reported in Texas. This species shows two morphotypes, with the more commonly found robust from having a lower rib index and the less commonly found gracile form having a higher rib index. This dimorphism is likely sexual, with the robust form being female and the gracile form being male. This particular specimen is a robust form with a rib index of roughly 3 1/2, but some gracile specimens of this species exhibit a rib index of up to 8 (Emerson 1994). The highest rib index of a P. trinodosum specimen that I have found is 7, this being on a fragment of a very mature gracile specimen. That specimen (seen here) shows very weak ventrolateral tubercles, a trait shared with all the other gracile specimens that I have seen thus far. This is in contrast to the strong ventrolateral tubercles of the robust form. It was broken in two when it separated from the rock shown in the last photo, with its outer whorl being shown in the 4th and 5th photos. The outer whorl is 53mm long, and at the top where the whorl height is measurable, it is 16mm. You can see in the photos of the main part of the specimen, the impression of where its outer whorl once was. The complete specimen would be about 65-70mm in diameter if its outer whorl was still connected. When applicable and needed, I have put the relevant pages for information, plates, and text figures at the end of references: Ulrich Kaplan und William James Kennedy (1994).

This is my first post to 'Collections' and he helped me get it all straight.
