Description

Genus Pseudarietites Frech, 1902

Type species

Pseudarietites silesiacus Frech, 1902: 63; by monotypy.

Genus diagnosis

Genus of the subfamily Pseudarietitinae with a circular or depressed whorl profile with raised ventral keel paralleled by two longitudinal grooves. Sculpture with simple ribs.

Genus composition

Central Europe (Frech 1902; Schmidt 1924; Vöhringer 1960): Pseudarietites silesiacus Frech, 1902; Pseudarietites westfalicus Schmidt, 1924; Pseudarietites subtilis Vöhringer, 1960; Pseudarietites serratus Vöhringer, 1960.

South China (Ruan 1981): Pseudarietites rotatilis Ruan, 1981.

Remarks

Pseudarietites differs from Paprothites in the presence of ventral furrows and a raised keel. Paralytoceras, unlike Pseudarietites, has a combination of sharp ribs and spiral lines. Rodingites gen. nov. has a more strongly compressed whorl profile with acute venter and a very prominent attached keel.
