ABSTRACT: Four taxa of ammonoid have been discovered in the , , and strata in Peninsular Thailand. All taxa are new records of ammonoids in Thailand. They comprise the Devonian ammonnoid ?Parawocklumeriidae gen. et sp. indet., the Carboniferous form cf. eganensis Korn and Titus, 2011, the Permian ammonoid Cyclolobus sp. indet. from Satun province, on the western part of the peninsula, and the Triassic ammonoid Ceratitina gen. et sp. indet. from Phatthalung province, on the eastern part of the peninsula.

Key words: new records, ammonoids, Cephalopoda, peninsular Thailand.
