Cladiscites is an extinct genus of cephalopods in the ammonoid order Ceratitida. These nektonic carnivores [2] lived during the Triassic, from Carnian to Rhaetian age. [1]
Description
Shells of these cephalopods can reach a diameter of about 70–170 centimetres (28–67 in). This genus survived at the extinction event at the end of the Permian.[3]
Distribution
Fossils of species within this family have been found in the Triassic of Afghanistan, Hungary, Italy, Oman, Tajikistan, United States[2] and the East Indies.
