Lower Cretaceous ammonites from the Neuquen Basin, Argentina: Viluceras, a new Valanginian subgenus of Olcostephanus

Viluceras is proposed as a new subgenus of Olcostephanus to accommodate a distinctive Argentinian Lower Cretaceous (Upper Valanginian) ammonite fauna originally assigned to the boreal genus Simbirskites and subsequently placed in Lemurostephanus. Based on extensive new collections from eight localit...
