Lytoceras
''Lytoceras'' is an ammonite genus that was extant during most of the Jurassic and Cretaceous periods, and is the type genus for the family Lytoceratidae. These cephalopods were fast-moving nektonic carnivores. Description Shells of ''Lytoceras'' are evolute, round or quadrate in section, covered with crinkled growth lines or riblets, and may have slight constrictions on internal molds. Some have fine striations, (parallel grooves running longitudinally along the flanks). Distribution Fossils of species within this genus have been found in the Jurassic and Cretaceous The Cretaceous ( ) is a geological period that lasted from about 145 to 66 million years ago (Mya).
