Summary

Although British and American forms of this genus all bear points of resemblance to Temnocheilus ventro-concavus, only two small specimens from Eastern Europe, Nautilus dorso-armatus Abich, resemble it in their possession of a flattened concave venter and a whorl section of quasi-quadrilateral shape.
