2001 KENNEDY ET AL.: COLLIGNONICERATINAE 3

ABSTRACT The Collignoniceratinae of the U.S. Western Interior ®rst appear in the lower Turonian and range through the middle, and most of the upper, Turonian. For most of their range they are important biostratigraphic indicators. A review of their biostratigraphic distribution is provided and this is followed by a revision and/or discussion of the following taxa: Cibolaites molenaari Cobban and Hook, 1983, Collignoniceras woollgari woollgari (Mantell, 1822), C. woollgari regulare Haas, 1946, C. vermilionense (Meek and Hayden, 1860), C. jorgenseni n. sp., C. percarinatum (Hall and Meek, 1856), C. praecox (Haas, 1946), Collignonicerites collisniger n. gen., n. sp., Prionocyclus hyatti (Stanton, 1894), P. albinus (Fritsch, 1872), P. macombi Meek, 1876, P. bosquensis Kennedy, 1988, P. wyomingensis Meek, 1876, P. novimexicanus (Marcou, 1858), P. quadratus Cobban, 1953, P. germari (Reuss, 1845), P. pluricostatus n. sp., Prionocyclites mite Kennedy, 1988, and Reesidites minimus Hayasaka and Fukada, 1951. Collignoniceras woollgari, Prionocyclus hyatti, P. macombi, P. wyomingensis, P. novimex- icanus, P. quadratus, and P. germari have been designated as zonal species in many publi- cations, but aside from C. woollgari, P. hyatti, and P. wyomingensis, most of these species have not been well described in terms of their intraspeci®c variation. In many species, there is a gracile and a robust form, which may represent sexual dimorphs, but in most instances, the sample size of adult specimens is too small to prove this.

INTRODUCTION Members of the subfamily were collected and described during the early surveys of the The Collignoniceratidae are a family of United States Interior, notably by Marcou Late (latest to mid- (1858), Hall and Meek (1856), Meek (1870, dle ) ammonites with a wide- 1871, 1876a, 1876b), and Stanton (1894), spread distribution (North and South Amer- while material from the Gulf Coast was de- ica, Europe, Africa, and Asia).

dle and later phragmocone whorls of the lat- ter, there are more siphonal tubercles than ventrolateral ones, and looped ribs connect opposite ventrolateral horns. This generally also separates body chambers, but multiple siphonal tubercles sometimes appear on adult body chambers of C. woollgari regulare,as do looped ribs. Collignoniceras vermilionense (Meek and Hayden, 1860) (see below) is a much smaller species, showing comparable dimorphism to that of C. woollgari regulare. Inner whorls are coarsely ribbed. In the microconch, which is adult at 55 mm diameter, coiling is very evolute. There are only outer ventrolat- eral clavi whereas in C. woollgari regulare of this size, there are both inner and outer ventrolateral clavi.

is separated by one to four low, narrow, sec- ondary ribs that are usually accentuated on the ventrolateral shoulder, but do not bear tu- bercles. Total primary and secondary rib counts per whorl are as follows: 35 at a di- ameter of approximately 6 mm, 38 at a di- ameter of about 14 mm, and 38 at a diameter of about 22.5 mm. That the holotype is a small adult is re- vealed by the weakening and disappearance of tubercles on the last part of the body chamber, and by the presence of a long (13.5 mm) rostrum. Only short sections of the su- ture are visible. Two paratypes (®g. 36B±D, K and 36H± J) from the same concretion as that of the holotype (®g. 36A) are adults 61 and 65 mm in diameter with umbilical to shell diameter ratios of 0.38 and 0.45, respectively. Both have crushed body chambers with the rostra broken off; the phragmocones are slender and probably somewhat crushed. Ribbing is sparser than that of the holotype, and pri- maries and secondaries alternate. Another adult paratype (un®gured) from the same concretion has a diameter of 50.5 mm and an umbilical to shell diameter ratio of 0.48. Its body chamber is also crushed, but the prom- inent rostrum is preserved. Most primary ribs are separated by two secondaries.

and generally 14±20 per whorl perch on the umbilical shoulder (®g. 67Q±X). They give rise to narrow, ¯exuous prorsiradiate ribs that terminate in small clavate to bullate inner ventrolateral tubercles. Outer ventrolateral tubercles may also be present, linked to the inner by prorsiradiate ribs, but disappear in early middle growth. The wide interspaces between these bullate primaries bear weak ribs that arise at the umbilical seam or low on the ¯anks plus lirae and growth striae (®g. 67Q±X). These weaker ribs may bear inner, but not outer ventrolateral tubercles, giving the shell a distinctive appearance when viewed ventrally (®g. 69B, C). Ornament sweeps forward and is concave over the ven- trolateral shoulder, forming an acute ventral chevron. The keel is minutely and evenly serrated, the serrations far exceeding the ribs in number (®gs. 69A±C, F, G; 70A±C). The largest gracile forms are still septate at 150 mm diameter (table 9). These specimens are ornamented by distant, narrow prorsiradiate ribs with weak umbilical bullae, up to 26 per whorl, separated by broad interspaces that are smooth on molds. Most specimens only have inner ventrolateral clavi at this stage, while there are some specimens with clavi intercalated between the ribs or even short intercalated ribs. Riblets and striae form an acute chevron on the venter, while the keel remains minutely serrated when well pre- served. Robust forms have a much wider umbili- cus and the whorl section varies from slightly compressed to depressed. In juveniles (®g. 67F±P) there are usually approximately 12 prominent umbilical bullae per whorl. These give rise to distant, narrow, rounded, straight, prorsiradiate primary ribs separated by wide interspaces, smooth on most molds. Bullae may be equal in strength or vary, while a few specimens have shorter intercalated ribs (®g.

develop much weaker ventrolateral tubercles, the arrangement giving the shell a highly ir- regular ornament. The largest robust individ- ual seen is 83 mm in diameter. Gracile individuals are common (®gs. 78± 81; ?82, ?83; 84G±J, 85A±C, F, G). At 40 mm diameter, coiling is evolute, with U/D ϭ 0.26 (table 10); the umbilicus is shallow, with a low ¯attened umbilical wall. The whorls are high and compressed (whorl breadth to height ratio averages 0.79), with ®ne, dense, crowded ribs. There are up to 12 weak umbilical bullae that give rise to single or paired ribs, with single nonbullate ribs be- tween that extend to the umbilicus or not, yielding a total of 44±48 ribs per whorl. Ribs are crowded, ¯exuous, and prorsiradiate, with small bullate to clavate inner, and cla- vate outer ventrolateral tubercles. In middle growth, specimens have up to 70 ribs per whorl. There are up to 18 bullae per whorl, initially at the umbilical shoulder, but tending to move out to the inner ¯anks, when a new bulla develops (®g. 81C). They are the bases of septate umbilical spines, and give rise to pairs of coarse ribs that are straight and prorsiradiate and initially loop to outer ventrolateral tubercles that are also the bases of septate spines. As size increases, the tendency to loop declines and the adapertural rib of the pair may detatch. There are one to six weaker, nonbullate long ribs between the bullate ones, each of which may develop a weak inner ventrolateral tubercle. The ribs sweep forward over the ventro- lateral shoulder to small, obliquely placed outer ventrolateral tubercles and form an acute chevron with the high and minutely serrated siphonal keel. The largest gracile in- dividuals are 220±230 mm diameter. At ma- turity, the bullate ribs strengthen markedly and are very coarse, high, and barlike. Where well-preserved, they bear long inner lateral and inner ventrolateral spines, while sharp outer ventrolateral clavi are also present. Be- tween are up to three much weaker, narrow, sharp long ribs that lack any trace of a tu-
